  3. Whisk together 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and the reserved sausage drippings in the skillet until smooth.
  4. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of skim milk until the gravy is smooth and thickened.
  5. Season generously with 1 teaspoon garlic salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon dried sage.
  6. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more garlic salt, pepper, or sage to your preference.
