While brainstorming AIP-friendly Thanksgiving recipe ideas, obviously mashed potatoes and gravy were right at the top of the list with the turkey.

I wanted something you could whip up on a whim, with the ingredients you have in your pantry, for a variety of dishes. Think: mashed potatoes, turkey, chicken, sausage, biscuits, meatballs, pasta…alllll the things that are delicious smothered in gravy.
And thus, this versatile Easy AIP Gravy was born. Let’s get cookin’!
