Tips
- For a spicier twist, add hot sauce to the gravy or sprinkle some cayenne pepper on the eggs.
- Consider using homemade gravy for an extra depth of flavor; a simple sausage gravy can complement the dish perfectly.
- Feel free to swap out bacon for sausage or even sautéed mushrooms for a vegetarian version.
