Scotch Eggs ww blue



Scotch Eggs

First let me explain. I am trying to use what I have at home with a normal family. So some of the items I use will be higher in points.

For this one you can use other meat to wrap around the egg.

The Butterball Turkey breakfast sausage is 2 points for 2 oz 

The Jennie O is 3 points for 2 1/2 oz

The Jimmy Dean Pork breakfast sausage is 7 points for 2 oz

One more option which would be to purchase the leanest ground turkey and add to your own breakfast spices for sausage. I found some at the Amazon.com. If I had all this, then this would be what I would have used. 

This is for the blue plan. and boiled eggs are 0 points.

 The choice is all yours and your plan and your points. 7 is still okay for me, because I only eat one and it is filling enough. The are good cold also. So matter what meat you use it is all the same technique. 


The Menu:

Scotch Eggs   (ww blue - this recipe and with the jimmy dean - 7 points an egg)

The players:


1lb of jimmy dean breakfast sausage ( I doubled mine)

8 hardboiled and peeled eggs.

Pam spray

The game:

Cut the sausage up into 2oz portions.


Spray your hand with a little pam spray or non-stick, makes it easier to mold onto egg.



Take 2 oz and patty down a bit in your hand and lay egg in it. 



Carefully squoosh and mold it like a cover on the egg.


It will make 8 with the 1 lb, but I double it for a large family. Plus they are very good cold. 

Spray air fryer and drop in 6 and cook 360 for 10 min. (go in once and turn over gently)  If you want browner, then step up the heat to 400. for another 2-4 minutes.

** make sure all of the egg is covered.





If you do it in a regular oven, spray pan, or parchment, or foil and the lay in eggs, Bake 350 for 20 minutes and turn over in middle also.

The reward:



There are such a hearty fast quick pack of protein. What could be better than sausage and an egg.

These also are a great idea for meal planning. You can trim the points down and add a little fruit and you have a complete meal. 

WW Blue Notes
This was a really satisfying. I used my instant pot to make 24 eggs at one time. I will post on how easy that can be. I love just a hard boiled egg and a cheese stick.
That is one of my ww blue hacks to stay on my journey. 

Living your best life and doing what feels good for you is the secret.
Keep it simple, Stay well and safe. 

welcome to my journey

*** If you do not make them right away, make sure to store in fridge to keep the sausage from getting warm and melting a bit.
