HAMBURGER GRAVY
Hamburger gravy is a staple in our home all year round. This is one of my go-to recipes when I need something quick and easy to make. It is so hearty and delicious! You can even make it ahead of time and then just reheat it for evenings that you’re in a time crunch.
Most of the time we just eat it served over mashed potatoes. However, if I’m planning ahead, we love to serve it over a slice of bread or dinner roll on the bottom, mashed potatoes layered on top of the roll, and then with candied carrots on the side – Yum!
