About Egg gravy

Egg gravy is a savory dish originating from Southern and Appalachian cuisines in the United States, often served as a comforting breakfast or side. This traditional recipe combines beaten eggs, flour or cornstarch for thickening, milk or water, and sometimes meat drippings, creating a rich and creamy sauce. Seasonings like salt and pepper enhance its simple flavors, and variations may include onions or herbs for added depth. While egg gravy is a good source of protein due to the eggs, its nutritional profile varies depending on the ingredients used—heavy fats from meat drippings or whole milk can increase calorie and fat content. Opting for lower-fat milk or vegetable-based oils can make it more heart-healthy. Typically enjoyed over biscuits, potatoes, or rice, it’s a high-calorie comfort food best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
