Have you thought of mixing some mashed cauliflower in? It is a bit of a healthy twist that I read of in a book. I did it, and seriously couldn’t tell the difference.

I just made the potatoes and they are delicious. I am adding them to my favorites. Keep them coming Roni!

Sandra… that sounds pretty cool to me. A bit high on the sodium but that’s to be expected. I always make my own with broth and drippings. See comment by me above. But for a quick gravy that sounds great!

Hi Roni,I had a question for you “what do you think about Heinz fat free gravy? 1/4 cup is 20 calories 0 fat 0 saturated fat, trans fat 0 cholesterol 0, carbs. 3g fiber 0 sugars 0 protien 1g. The only thing is the sodium is 250mg. Thank you so much.

How did you get your gravy nice and dark and thick?

I boil my potatoes in half chicken broth and half water, they come out so creamy and flavorful you don’t really need to add anything.

Another plus to using the cream cheese, is that you can make them ahead of time and reheat them in the oven or microwave. The cream cheese keeps them from getting ‘gluey’

Wow. I’m so intrigued. I’m not necessarily trying to have a healthy Thanksgiving (my family would shoot me), but if I can trick them with a few lighter versions, I can’t help but try. These are going on the list. THANK YOU.

Debbie - Never heard of “red eye” gravy. Apparently it’s a southern thing… http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_eye_gravy Learn something new every day! ;~)

Christy - No, I HATE coffee, can’t taste it at all. It’s just adds color and a different dimension. I would never call it coffee gravy or anything. :~)
