This Spicy Turkey Sausage Gravy is bursting with spicy goodness with jalapenos and buffalo sauce! Â Oh my…this is definitely the dream breakfast for the lover of all things spicy. Â The gravy is so creamy and delicious with turkey sausage for a healthier option. Â Not a fan of spicy food? Â You can easily omit the peppers and buffalo sauce and still get a wonderful tasting gravy with hints of sage with this recipe! Â Admittedly, I am more of a pancakes and waffles type of girl. Â I decided to let my husband pick my brunch item this week for a manly take on the perfect dream breakfast. Â I should have known that it would 1) be spicy 2) involve meaty substances. Â So of course, spicy biscuits and gravy was born! Â I myself, haven’t had sausage gravy in years due to not eating beef or pork. Â I decided that I would make a spicy version with turkey sausage so that we could both enjoy it. Â I have discovered that I actually like biscuits and gravy! Â The buffalo sauce really adds a welcome flavor with this gravy that I have never had before.
What a week!  My daughter had her 4th birthday party on Sunday…not sure where the time went!  Move over My Little Pony’s, she is officially a lover of Barbie Dolls now…LOL.  My week became even more interesting when I had to perform my civic duty as a juror this week.  Oh what fun that was!  Nothing like listening to testimony for two days over a deceitful used car salesman!  It really just made me want to never buy a car again.
You guys are probably going to be annoyed with me, but I am still obsessed with pumpkin right now.  I am working on a couple more pumpkin recipes and then I will be moving on to all things peppermint in honor of Christmas.

It’s not easy to make sausage gravy look pretty and delicious, but you sure did it! I want a plate of this right now. (Speaking of plates, I have that blue plate too!)

Made this yesterday. I bought pork sausage without thinking but it turned out great! Never thought of using peppers or hot sauce in gravy. Loved the heat! I only wish my biscuits had turned out as good 😛
Holly says
That’s awesome…I’m so glad you liked it! Thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
