1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 unbaked pie shell

Ganja Gravy
serves 10
1lb pork sausage (See note for vegetarian option)
2 1/2 cups milk, divided
1/2 cup Flour
1 teaspoon chicken bouillon
2 tablespoons cannabutter
salt and pepper to taste
Steps
Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium heat.
Blend half of the milk with the flour ensuring there are no lumps and set aside.
Once browned, pour the other half of the milk over the sausage and add the chicken bouillon. Stir and ensure all the brown bits are scraped off the bottom of the pan.
Turn heat down to medium-low and add the milk and flour mixture, whisking constantly as you bring the gravy to boil.
Once you’ve reached a boil, turn the heat to low, add the cannabutter and keep stirring until the gravy has thickened.
Note: want to make it vegetarian? Substitute 1lb of sausage for 1 small onion minced and 1/2 teaspoon each of chopped fresh sage, thyme, and rosemary; and substitute chicken bouillon for vegetable bouillon.
