1 1/2 lb. pork sausage
12 eggs, hard cooked and peeled

Dip sausage wrapped eggs in beaten egg; roll in bread crumbs until completely coated. Place in ungreased 15 x 10 inch jelly roll pan. Bake at 450 degrees for 30 minutes or until meat is thoroughly browned and cooked. Makes 12 servings. Tips: Recipe can be made 1 day ahead, after wrapping sausage around egg. Cover and refrigerate. Continue as directed above. Scotchy eggs can be sliced into quarters and served as appetizers.
