Last Minute Brown Gravy

This recipe is great, especially for those times when your husband tells you he wants mashed potatoes with beef gravy, and you're cooking chicken...

This brown gravy is made using beef bouillon granules (or cubes) rather than drippings, which is handy if you don't have any beef drippings.

You can add more water if you prefer a thinner gravy.  This is a flavorful gravy that is perfect for those times that you don't have a lot of time since it comes together in about 5 minutes or less!
