Add a photoWhen it comes to Thanksgiving dinner, the gravy seems to enhance the flavor of every item on your plate. It pulls the turkey, stuffing, and potatoes nicely together. This year don’t use one of those store bought jars of the stuff, make our skinny recipe. It’s easier than you think... Most of the flavor of ours comes from the stock. We’ve thickened it with some flour and added some simple seasonings.
