Gravy Train

My dad loves gravy train. It is basically a meat and gravy dish served over mash potatoes or rice. After making it so many times growing up, I decided to get creative with this dish. Here is my version of gravy train. I hope you all enjoy this.

Ingredients:

• 1 small pack of beef stir fry strips, cubed
• 1 gravy packet (I use the mushroom gravy packet, but pork or original is fine too)
• 1 tbsp of dry parsley (fresh would be best though)
• ½ tsp of cinnamon (you can keep this out if you do not like it)
• ½ onion, diced
• 1 tsp of Creole seasoning
• 1 tsp of garlic powder
• Salt and Pepper to taste

Directions:

1. After cubing the beef strips, add them to a fry pan along with the onions, parsley, cinnamon, creole seasoning, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
2. Have the heat set between medium and low and make sure you don’t burn the meat or onions.
3. After the meat is cooked all the way and the onions are soft, follow the directions on the gravy packet and add it in the pan.
4. If the gravy is too thick, add some extra water.
5. Bring the meat and gravy mixture to a boil and then set the lid on. Turn the heat to low and allow to simmer for ten minutes.
