Thank you so much.

I was buying simply organic by the pkg and now they have tripled in price. Now I make this! Thanks.

Oh my gosh I so needed this video! We're almost out of store bought beef gravy mix & I'd much rather make it from scratch. Thank you so much for this video! Have a great rest of your week!!! Can't wait for your next live!

So practical, and a great way to save money over buying those little packets!

Love having these! My son, when he was a little boy would always call country gravy, "good gravy", and get so excited when we had it.

This is awesome!! I usually just make my own gravy, but my son oldest son always buys the packets of gravy mixes. Just wait till I tell him that I can make him some gravy mix!! Hahaha, this will be great!! Thanks so much for Sharing Renee!! God bless you

I just found your channel and I certainly admire you and love your videos. A BIG hello from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦

Big thank you Renea for sharing😊😊Looks terrific!

Thanks, Renea... Great video and great kitchen hacks!!!!❤

Another terrific pantry staple. So convenient and cost affective too💜

This is just what I need in my pantry. I will be making all of these. Thank you for sharing.

Hi Renea!!! Oh I like when you make the mixes. I have to do them for sure. Thank you for the recipies!!! A fan and friend. DiDi

Thank you, Happy New Year!!

Renea, thank you for sharing these wonderful gravy mixes, how easy, and perhaps a bit more healthy than what you can buy in the store. Enjoy the day! Catherine

Looks yummy and your fancy shmancy flowered ones are adorable! 👍👍👍

Awesome! Thank you Renea!

Great idea. I love making gravy but never thought to jar the ingredients. Thank you for these tips and recipes I will definitely be adding this to my spice cabinet💜

Thank you for this gravy recipe! I have to try this out.

Thanks so much for this! I'm def. going to do this next week!

This is so helpful! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you, Renea, I'll keep those in mind. When I make country gravy, I make a roux the usual way then add a cup of milk and a cup of water stirring until it starts to thicken. The result is a very smooth, creamy texture, and it is so awesome on biscuits.

Thank you Brenda. I am going to prepare all 3 of these. Need to get some jars. Made your Amish poor man's steak today with ground beef and pork mixture. It was delicious. I had only 1.45 lbs so adjusted other ingredients except I did use 2 cans of soup. I like gravy.

thanks...now I want a country fried steak or chicken gravy and biscuits. .nite nite

Thank you so much for the recipes, have a great day,God Bless!!!

I tried your hamburger helper mix. I've used the mix twice now. The family loves the meals I made with it. Got to make these gravy mixes now.

Thank you so much I have to make so much gravy because my husband has had radiation for his lungs and the radiation scarred his his throat he can't hardly swallow anything so I have to make sauces and gravies to make slide and also I have to cut up a lot of stuff very small thank you so much again❤

Thank you for the video!

Thank You I will be doing this!

Nice gravy mixes. Grandma Sue in central Indiana and Izzi Too

I didnt see the written recipe for this but wow that looks amazing and I do want to try it for my own pantry. Going to try to stop buying the packs of stuff like the brown gravy and taco seasoning and onion soup mix. Just way better for me and my family to not have all the chemicals and stuff you cant pronounce! Thanks for all your videos you go thru stuff very well and makes us all want to try the things that you do :) Have a blessed day!

Renea, can dry milk be added to the mix for the white country gravy? I would love to have an alternative to the Pioneer Brand where only mixing water to the mix.

I have a question about the country gravy adding the chicken bouillon and the chicken base to it does that make it taste like a chicken gravy or a white country powdered peppered gravy

WOW! What an amazing time saver! I'm making these tonight for sure! On another subject Ms Renea.......do you make SOURDOUGH BREAD? I've looked for a recipe that doesn't take days and days to make and I'm SO frustrated. I guess I was hoping you made this bread so I could beg a recipe from you. It would be wonderful if you did have one. I have a starter already perking, but no clear recipe on the bread making part. Anyway, I loved this instructional video and will be making it tonight!

If you worked your math, you could add dry milk to this mix so all you would have to add was water.

I have had surprisingly a problem finding poultry seasoning that you dont need to take a loan out to buy it. any where you get it reasonable priced

Of all the ingredients that you concautioned in these recipe how much of them did you grow in your garden to make up those ingredients? See I get fustrated because when I go to do a recipe I have to stop and run to the store to get them to add in when I have to figure out how to grow them trying very hard to be self sufficient as possible.
