Notes: Biscuits and Gravy is one of my favorite breakfast meals with a caveat. I can’t do a lot of hiking after eating it. Maybe it’s the 73 grams of carbs or the thick gravy but I always feel like I could use a nap after eating this breakfast. Because of that I started eating it for dinner. The flavors are great and the biscuits rehydrate well. A touch of black pepper or hot sauce and you have a fantastic way to start, or end a day.

May the miles you hike be filled with wonder and the glasses you raise be filled with whiskey. Cheers!
