I love this recipe. Since my father-in-law needs to watch his fat intake, I modified the recipe to cut a lot of the fat out. I use turkey breakfast sausage and add a couple of tablespoons of maple syrup as the turkey sausage is cooking. You can add some dry sage if you like to kick it up a notch. I make sure to get the sausage nice and brown and then remove to a small bowl, leaving the drippings in the pan. I add three tablespoons of Smart Balance 50/50 butter blend and melt, adding in the flour and whisking the roux for at least a minute to remove flour taste. Instead of three cups of whole milk, I use two cups of Land 'O Lakes Fat Free half and half, and one cup of skim milk. I add only the first cup of milk, whisk really well, then add the rest of the milk, seasoning well with salt and pepper. Now you've got all the taste without all the fat. Totally yummy!
