About Biscuit and sausage

Biscuit and sausage is a classic comfort food rooted in Southern American cuisine, often enjoyed as a hearty breakfast or brunch option. This dish typically consists of flaky, buttery biscuits paired with flavorful sausage, sometimes served with a rich, creamy sausage gravy. The biscuits are made from flour, butter, milk, and leavening agents, while the sausage is typically seasoned ground pork. Though satisfying and packed with protein, this dish is often high in saturated fats, sodium, and refined carbohydrates, which may not make it the best choice for those watching their calorie intake or heart health. For a healthier twist, opt for whole-grain biscuits, lean turkey sausage, or use low-fat milk in the gravy. While indulgent, biscuit and sausage remains a beloved favorite for its comforting flavors and filling nature. Moderation and ingredient substitutions can make it a more balanced option in the diet.
