Written by Lindsey Oosterhof
Biscuits and Gravy is the ultimate comforting breakfast meal, but did you know it was originally created due to a lack of supplies and money?
Crafted in the Southern USA, biscuits and gravy was made to be a hearty, inexpensive meal that could sustain appetites for long workdays.
Today the dish remains a go-to brunch staple that is worth springing out of bed for on a Saturday morning. But where does a vegan in Seattle get their biscuits and gravy fix?
Luckily, Seattle has plentiful options for vegan biscuits and gravy, so we’re exploring the best the city has to offer to help prepare you for whenever the craving strikes.
