We like to cook some fresh link sausage, save some of the sausage grease in the skillet. Open a can of diced tomatoes and put in the skillet. Let it heat up. Serve over rice, with the sausage and a fried egg. This is one of my favorite meals.

Tomato gravy is was a part of life having been born and raised int he south. Still cook it and still love it, even my northern born and breed husband too. My grandmother was a drepression cook so we ate lots of stuff that most folks never heard of, but was sure good.

I make a delicious tomato gravy from the remains after frying chicken. My children and husband love this gravey over rice served wth biscuits. This one however, reminds me of the one my mother use to make when we were children for breakfast. It was mildly sweet and she served it over hot biscuits! Thanks

[...] rice, gravy, and corn rut. Even a simple swap for steamed broccoli makes a big impact, rice and tomato gravy? Even better. Reach for purple cabbage instead of green, if the other items aren’t visually [...]

The kids aren't HUGE fans, but they will eat it and it's just another way to add some flavor my husband and I like and add a little more fruit/vegetables (yeah yeah yeah tomatoes are a fruit) to our diets.

I've never heard of tomato gravy, but I really like the idea of having a multi-purpose sauce I can make pretty easily with ingredients I have on hand. Thanks.

I have tried making this before as hubby says it's great and something he was raised on here in the South. Mine did not come out all that great but I am going to give your recipe a try and see if I get some ooo's and ahhh's from it.

Oh wow, I am now having an unbelievable craving for my mom’s biscuits with tomato gravy. Bet it’s been at least 25 yrs. since I’ve had it. I will be making this in the next few days- thanks for posting the recipe! Love your blog!

But this stuff is legendary, right up there with fruitcake!! Do some people differ on what the real thing is? I’ve heard versions with milk and some without. I live near Amish too – as Pam referenced – and I got a recipe out of a Mennonite cookbook that we love. You dredge tomatoes in flour, fry them in lots of butter, sprinkle with brown sugar and salt, then add a little cream and “squash ‘em.” We adore it over grits, biscuits or potatoes. oh yum.
I’m definitely going to try this recipe! On another note, I made the no-bake peanut butter oatmeal cookies that you posted a few weeks back. Delicious! However, I also made the vegan lentil casserole (loaf!) which we did not care for and I repurposed as enchiladas filling. Nothing is bad if it’s baked with cheese and tortillas!
