Happy National Biscuits and Gravy Day! Biscuits and gravy are a classic, Southern comfort food. They are often eaten for breakfast in the South but are also a lovely side dish, especially during the holidays!

We put together a list of 15 delicious recipes from our Food Monster App for Biscuit and Gravy Day–a combination of individual biscuit and gravy recipes, as well as recipes in which there is already a tasty combination of the two!
