GRANDPA'S EGGS AND POORMAN'S GRAVY

Steps:

• Prepare your bisquits and fry up your bacon and boil your eggs. Peel your eggs while still hot and slice them up or mash with a fork like my Grandpa Campbell did.
• Now, add your pats of butter and generous amount of pepper and a little salt.
• Make up your gravy with the pan grease from the bacon a little butter and flour mix all together in a pan. Add a little milk if you want your gravy thinner.
• Get your biscuits and open the up and pour your poormans' gravy over them and add your mashed eggs on top with 2 slices of bacon. You are ready to eat. We only make poorman'ts gravy once a month if that. Try not to enduldge in it too much. :-) But, boy did my Grandpa love his poorman's gravy!!
• This is normally how I eat my mashed eggs over one slice of low calorie toast. Not quite as yummy but still tasty and of course a pickle to go with it since I'm not getting any bacon! hehe
