Garlic Mashed Potatoes w/Rosemary and Mushroom Gravy

The recipe for the mashed potatoes is not vegan, but can easily be adjusted. Earth balance butter and almond milk in equivalent amounts are perfect. The gravy is so delicious and rich I could eat it plain! We added rosemary instead of thyme for a different flavor, but I have made it with the thyme and it is equally as good. In the mix we added Tofurky Italian Sausages that had been sautéed in olive oil. This is one of my absolute favorite meals, and very easy to prepare. On the side is spinach sautéed in garlic and olive oil.
