This popular breakfast classic is commonly seen in diners and is a morning staple in the southern United States. A good gravy is key, and I’m not talking about a cheap powdered gravy that comes in a packet. Good gravy comes from good meat, and sausage is our meat of choice. Biscuits are the vessel that will carry this succulent gravy into your heart, and in turn, your arteries. These biscuits are fluffy and when they have been further softened by the gravy, they become an ideal easy-to-chew breakfast. Try eating it with eggs and an ice cold glass of fresh squeezed orange juice.

Biscuits and Gravy are moist, have multiple solid textures, and can be processed into bite sized pieces without extensive chewing.
If you require a pureed texture, biscuits and gravy can easily be pureed. Add plenty of gravy to the biscuits until they are soft and fully saturated. Then run the cooked gravy through a blender or food processor until fully smooth. Top the biscuits with the gravy and enjoy!
It has been shown that poor oral health is a contributing factor to involuntary weight loss in elderly people. If you have dentures or dental problems, you are more likely to suffer from involuntary weight loss. So are you or someone you know losing weight because of dental problems? Biscuits and Gravy can help. Sometimes a little fat and an increased calorie intake can be a good thing!
What if you want to eat biscuits and gravy but you don’t have time to make it from scratch? You can take a shortcut and just use Bisquick for the biscuits. They are super quick and taste pretty good! You could also get the powdered country gravy that comes in packets at the store. It won’t have the same amount of character as homemade gravy, but it can still get the job done!
Any cookie cutter or biscuit form will do. I am a fan of round biscuits, call me crazy but I think they taste better. Click HERE to see a solid set of round biscuit cutters.
