Mama’s Ham Gravy on Biscuits

Ham Gravy on Biscuits!

Who would have thought such an easy inexpensive recipe would be such a big hit with my family.  I came across this recipe in a magazine, so I tweaked it, as usual, and gave it a try.  Now my family requests it all the time.

One day I started making this dish and discovered someone had eaten the last of the eggs, so I used potatoes instead.  My family couldn’t decide which version they like better, so I have included both options below.

Ingredients for Ham Gravy on Biscuits:

2 cans of refrigerated biscuits

2 cups cubed fully cooked ham

1/2 cup chopped onion

6 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1/4 teaspoon pepper

6 tablespoons unbleached all-purpose flour

3 1/2 cups milk

6 hard-cooked eggs, chopped (I use my handy egg slicer and slice the egg one way then turn the egg and slice it the other way)

2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley (use 1 tablespoon of dried)

Instructions for Ham Gravy on Biscuits:

Bake biscuits according to package directions.

In a large skillet, saute ham and onion  in butter for 3-4 minutes or until onions are crisp-tender.

Stir in bouillon cubes, Worcestershire sauce and pepper. In a small mixing bowl, combine the flour and milk until smooth; gradually stir into the pan.  Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.  Gently stir in the eggs and parsley.

Split biscuits in half horizontally, place on dinner plate, and top with ham mixture.

Another Option for Ham Gravy on Biscuits:

For the second option, I chopped 8 medium potatoes in small cubes and boil them until they are tender (about 20 minutes).  When the recipe says to add the eggs and parsley, add the potatoes and parsley.

I think next time, I will try both, the eggs and the potatoes, in the same dish.

    VERY VERY YUMMY!!! Even my picky kids liked it. I added celery salt (1/2 tsp.) because I love celery salt and it was very good.

    Thank you! My kids beg me to make this one all the time! The celery salt sounds like a great option, thanks for the suggestion; I will have to try that.

    Mango fruit leather has turned out to be one of my kids' favorites. The sugar is totally optional, but it makes it much sweeter and cuts the tartness. The post Mango Fruit Leather appeared first on Mama’s Homestead.

    Cream soda...do you like yours red or amber colored? I chose the amber colored version for my cream soda jelly. I like the flavor better. Plus, I added a teaspoon of vanilla, just for added vanilla goodness. The post Cream Soda Jelly appeared first on Mama’s Homestead.
