Grandpa's Eggs and Poorman's Gravy image

Alright, I know this is extremely simple breakfast but I just had to post it. Everytime I make my eggs this way I am brought back to my grandparents house and my Grandpa Campbell making breakfast. He LOVED to make breakfast and this was another meal he made us quite often. I just love it! Simple yes, but simple good too. Now,...

Categories     Eggs

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 medium hard boiled eggs (still hot)
4 pats of butter
salt and pepper
4 medium homemade biscuits or pillsbury store bought
4 slice fresh made bacon
POORMANS GRAVY
bacon grease
butter
flour
a little milk too

Steps:

  • 1. 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.
  • 2. Now, add your pats of butter and generous amount of pepper and a little salt.
  • 3. 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.
  • 4. 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!!
  • 5. 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

I've made this dish several times and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover eggs and potatoes. The gravy is also a great way to use up leftover meat drippings.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover potatoes. I usually have some mashed potatoes or roasted potatoes in the fridge and this is a great way to use them up. The gravy is also a great way to use up leftover meat drippings.

I'm not a huge fan of gravy, but this recipe changed my mind. The gravy is so flavorful and creamy. I could eat it on anything. The eggs and potatoes are also cooked perfectly.
