I am a biscuits & gravy kind of girl. Always have been, and I’m going to guess I always will be. I had to come up with a way to enjoy B&G while one Whole30 & creating this country gravy has been one of the greatest gifts I have ever given myself.
Cashew cream makes this gravy, creamy & completely savory. There is no sweetness from the normal dairy free substitute: coconut milk. (I’m not a fan of coconut milk, unless it’s meant to be there. In a curry for example). Finding Cashew Cream has been an awesome way to add creaminess to not only this recipe but so many others!

Notes
Try using Sweet Potatoes as a substitute for russet.
Hash browns or Gluten free biscuits serve as an excellent subsistute for the potato stacks.
To reheat gravy: if the gravy gets too think while in in the fridge, add a tsp of water at a time while heating to regain desired consistency.
Great for meal prep!
