Idk man french onino is pretty dope and that has bread in it. Also a bruschetta and nice tomato soup to dip in is good.

Dinner and supper are the same thing afaik....never heard lunch called dinner.

 

Nope - Breakfast (breaking your fasting from overnight)

Brunch - eaten in place of and later than breakfast (combination of breakfast & lunch)

Lunch - afternoon meal, meant to tide you to...

Dinner - main meal of the day

Supper - lighter than & later than dinner.

At least, this is what I remember reading about some time ago.

No. Tomato gravy is a southern staple. 

You fry up some bacon and onions, then use the grease to make a roux with flour and a little chicken stock. Then add a can of diced tomatoes. Add sugar, salt, pepper, basil, and add chopped bacon to it. Let it simmer. Pour over biscuits. 

No, that is a sauce. Specifically it's base is the veloute sauce which is made from chicken stock but with extra steps.

It is not even close to a sauce. It is thick because it's made with flour, like gravy is. 

I make tomato sauces. This is not a sauce. 

Since there is no meat juices, like from a roast when you cook it, the chicken stock is added. It acts as the meat juices.

Flour? I thought gravy base was stock of whatever animal. You really gonna say that tomato doesn't have juices?

Gravy is made with flour added. I didn't say anything like tomatoes don't have juices. I said their is no meat juices. Hence, the addition of chicken stock. Keep up, son.

Bechemel sauce- milk, flour, butter

Veloute sauce- chicken stock, flour, butter

Espangnole sauce- beef stock, flour, butter

 

Three out of the five mother sauces use flour to thicken them. Gravy is made from pan drippings. If you didn't roast some kind of meat and deglazed the roasting pan you made a sauce.

Tomatoe has plenty of meat. It is just not animal protein.

What I make does not use chicken stock. Most recipes for it does. Which is what I posted. Mine is gravy, but I'm do not give out my own recipes. Mine has a meat product and the pan has been deglazed to make the gravy. For the purposes of giving a generalized idea of what tomato gravy is, I posted a simplistic recipe. Mine is not simplistic. I wasn't expecting to get critiqued over details, but I still do not regret not posting my actual recipe. Tomato gravy requires an acquired taste. So, it's not like anyone would want to try it anyways. If someone really is interested in trying my recipe, then I will share it via messenger.

My tomato gravy is made using the same cooking methods and steps as traditional brown gravy. 

My bad for not being clear that what I posted is more of a sauce. The recipes call it tomato gravy, but I just posted the first one I found. 

Mine is nothing like that. I'm just not grasping my thoughts on my gravy and what I'm talking about here, which isn't mine. 

My apologies. 

Thanks for the correction stilgar.

Meh, it's just called gravy...how did it get all sauce elitist....food doesn't have to accurately describe itself by it's name...Otherwise mountain oysters, hog head cheese, and steak fingers wouldn't be a thing.  It's not jam, it MIGHT be sauce, but it's called gravy....No reason to be difficult.
