Biscuits and Sausage Gravy is a classic comfort dish originating from Southern American cuisine, often enjoyed as a hearty breakfast. This meal features soft, flaky biscuits smothered in a creamy, savory gravy made from pan-fried sausage, milk, and flour, seasoned with black pepper. While high in flavor, it is also calorie-dense and typically rich in fats and sodium due to the sausage and butter or shortening used in the biscuits. Biscuits provide carbohydrates for energy, while sausage contributes protein to the dish, though the saturated fats can make it less heart-healthy for frequent consumption. It’s a satisfying option for occasional indulgence, providing warmth and richness that evoke traditional Southern hospitality. Pairing it with fresh fruits or vegetables can help balance the meal and add essential nutrients.
