Keto Sausage Gravy with Cream Cheese
My keto sausage gravy starts with browned breakfast sausage, then uses cream cheese and heavy cream to create a thick, rich gravy without flour. I serve it over warm keto biscuits for a low-carb take on classic biscuits and gravy. It comes together in one skillet for an easy weekend breakfast.
