How to cook deliciously - Southern-Style Tomato Gravy

1. Stage

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon on a paper towel-lined plate, reserving drippings in the skillet.

2. Stage

Stir flour and butter into drippings, scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture begins to thicken, about 3 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, breaking them into small pieces to release juices while cooking; season with salt and pepper.

3. Stage

Add heavy cream and cream cheese to tomato mixture. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until gravy is hot and thick, about 10 minutes. Serve with bacon.
