Bobby Deen lightens up classic Southern grits by cooking them in low-sodium chicken broth instead of cream or whole milk (this trick also adds savory depth). And he replaces traditional pork sausage with turkey kielbasa, which is lower in calories and saturated fat but still delivers smoky and meaty flavor. This Southern tomato gravy is an old-fashioned tomato sauce, and it is delicious on biscuits. The easy roux is made with bacon drippings or butter. Serve the gravy over hot baked and buttered biscuits or use it as a sauce for pasta, rice, meatloaf, grits, or potatoes and garnish with a sprinkling of chopped.
