🔗 Nobody wrote down the old diner recipes and secrets we used for 35 years — so I finally did. Get em before they're gone: https://www.nancysdiner.com/ For 35 years I ran the counter at a little diner on Main Street, there before the sun came up, pouring the first pot of coffee for the men headed to the factory and the farm. Today I'm sharing 25 forgotten diner breakfasts only older folks still remember, and exactly how each one was made. From biscuits and sausage gravy and corned beef hash to ham with red-eye gravy, creamed chipped beef, fried mush, and scrapple — these are the hearty, cheap breakfasts built to carry a working body through a long, hard day.
