- 1/3 cup flour
- 2 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- Brown the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the turkey sausage until it is no longer pink, breaking it apart as it cooks to ensure even browning.

- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes.
- This recipe pairs perfectly with homemade or store-bought buttermilk biscuits.
