Recipe: Make-Ahead Gravy

Make Ahead: Easy, homemade Simple Chicken Stock adds loads of flavor to our Make-Ahead Gravy. Pour cooked gravy into quart-size zip-top plastic freezer bags; seal and lay bags flat on a baking sheet. Place in freezer. Once frozen, the bags are easily stockable. Thaw three to four days in the fridge before reheating on the stovetop.
