If you've ever thought about making breakfast in a more compact, portable, and delicious way, then the Scotch egg is the miracle product for you.

I wish I could take credit for this recipe, but it really belongs to my mother-in-law. I only learned it after she passed it down to my wife who then made me some of the best roasted chicken I've ever had.
