creamed eggs and biscuits
(1 RATING)
Now my Mother is not the best cook in the world - at least hers and my taste buds are about as far apart as you can possibly get. But this is one recipe she makes that I cannot turn down. It is very simple - basically just white gravy with boiled eggs - but the eggs make the gravy taste amazing. She serves it over plain white toast and it's great that way. But I serve it over hot biscuits, and it is heavenly. This was a traditional Easter breakfast when we were growing up. All of our boiled Easter Eggs went into the gravy giving it a very special Easter tint.
