Baked Scotch Eggs
"These are easy, filling, and can be made a day or two ahead and baked fresh and hot in the morning! My husband freezes any leftovers and pops them in the microwave to reheat and says they're great that way too. I've found that a pound of sausage will cover about 6 medium eggs. My husband tried to stretch it more one time and covered 8 medium eggs with one pound of sausage, but they split when they baked and the exposed egg got burned."

I'm 47 years old and love to cook. My guys aren't real adventurous eaters, but my daughter is! She & her husband send me great recipes and it's fun to try them after I know they've been tested.
