Creole Creamed Eggs
Egg-licious
Today's feature is a southern favorite and based on a milk base gravy featuring sliced hardboiled eggs. There are many variations including adding crumbled sausage to the gravy before piling by heaping tablespoons over hot open face biscuits.
The Creole recipe for this sauce gets its inspiration from, for better terms, the traditional Béchamel sauce but with the addition of hot pepper sauce makes an unforgettable spicy breakfast dish. Enjoy!
