Can you make homemade gravy without cooking a turkey?

I don't even know if this is possible.  Maybe I should look in the Thanksgiving thread?

yes, you can do it with broth and flour and butter, or look for a mushroom gravy recipe.

Yep...its really easy. Just buy some broth and you can use flour or corn starch to thicken it.

Thanks that looks super simple and uncomplicated! Last year no one made gravy and my sisters "fancy" stuffing was so dry

They have Swanson turkey broth in the grocery store now.  I'm going to stock (ha!) up.

Shut up mini. Just because google changed it, doesn't mean in elementary school, we got it wrong.

I tend to trust Mini on these issues
Mini is so smart!

Go to trader Joe's and buy a box of turkey gravy.  They had them prominently displayed last week.

Use a good veg stock cube or make your own veg stock. And then make gravy as with meat. Just as good.
