🥘Ingredients

For the Sausage

1 lb dairy-free sausage

For the Gravy

2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp all-purpose flour
2 cups vegetable broth
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried rosemary
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp salt

👨‍🍳Directions

1Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2Add sausage and cook until browned and crispy, about 5 to 7 minutes.
3Break up the sausage into small pieces as it cooks.
4Remove sausage from skillet and set aside.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions About Dairy-Free Sausage Gravy
