Mushroom Sauce

No gravy left? Here is an easy substitute to serve with your meat loaf or burgers.

Prepare the following:

• 1/4 cup margarine
• 1/4 cup flour
• salt & pepper to taste
• 1 tsp parsley flakes
• 4 tsp bouillon
• 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 2 cups water
• 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms (or canned and drained)
  

Melt the margarine in a sauce pan over medium heat. Mix in flour, seasonings, parsley, bouillon, Worcestershire sauce, and paprika (I would probably add a dash of essence, some kitchen bouquet and a tbsp of soy sauce). Stir in water and mushrooms until it boils and thickens. Spoon over meat loaf or as a gravy side dish. Makes 2 cups.
