About Sausage and gravy

Sausage and gravy is a hearty comfort food rooted in Southern American cuisine, typically served over flaky biscuits. This dish features a savory, creamy gravy made from pan-dripping roux, milk, and flour, enhanced by crumbled sausage. Pork sausage is the most common choice, often seasoned with salt, pepper, and herbs like sage. While it’s rich in flavor and satiating, it’s high in calories, saturated fats, and sodium, particularly due to the sausage and cream-based gravy. On the positive side, it provides protein from the sausage and some calcium from the milk if made with whole or fortified dairy. Eating this dish as an occasional indulgence can be part of a balanced diet when paired with lighter sides like fresh fruit or steamed vegetables.
