Skinny Cheesy Green Chile Sausage Gravy

May 27, 2014 Amanda Plott

A few words that you don't normally see in a description together? Skinny, cheesy, and gravy. But, somehow I've managed to pull it off. This gravy is so full of vegetables and lean sausage that you can absolutely afford the cheese that's in there.

Seriously. This stuff is pretty addicting.

The first time that I made this recipe was last week to go along with my 3 Ingredient Biscuits as a test. I've never made a gravy before, much less one that was healthified or skinny at all. So, I was a bit skeptical that I what I had planned would turn out at all...

Skinny Green Chile & Cheddar Corn Casserole

I know, it sounds crazy! It's 100+ degrees F. in Texas and I want soup. But, I was craving some comfort food that would be easy for me to deal with in the process of getting surgery-ready and then healing...

This is ridiculously delicious. And it takes little to no time at all to prepare!

I wanted something cold, light, and veggieful to help combat the heat of the summer after a weekend impromptu tubing adventure down the Comal river with my parents and three year old little lady...
