"Golden Rod Eggs-Tennessee Style"
My mom didn't separate the white of the boiled eggs from the yolks. She simply crumbled the shelled eggs with a fork in a large bowl.Next she would sprinkle pieces of toasted bread with the crumbled boiled eggs. Then, she would top the eggs with the milk gravy she'd made from the bacon drippings, corn starch, and milk. She would apportion each of us with 2 slices of crisp bacon and a glass of milk. Man, it's one of the most vivid memories I have of my mom's cooking abilities.
