This is one my friend & i 'invented', i say invented, but somebody may / probably has done this somewhere else before.
It was thought up whilst immensley hungover one day, but it was a few weeks until we implemented it.
We figured 2 of the UK's favourite foods are pies (if you're Northern) & fry-ups.
Why not combine the 2?

Take 1 pie dish, line the bottom with buttered bread & layer some chopped tomato's, add fried off sausages (chopped),bacon (cut into strips), mushrooms (quatered). (all lightly browned not crucified).
Some black pudding, (chopped & some baked beans over the top.
Then make a scrambled egg mixture up, however don't make scrambled eggs from it, a generous helping of black pepper.
Take a packet (or 2) of the jus'roll flaky pastry, roll out enough to cover the dish, top & cook in the oven until the pastry has browned.

Consume.

Let me know what you think, it's worth a try (in my opinion).

Do I have to wait for the sausages to go off before I fry them or will fresh ones do just as well?

Sorry but some things should just be left alone.

Of course try it out and post some pics here but personally I can't ever see it taking off.

However, a sausage and baked bean pasty is the dogs danglies.

I've had a sausage, bacon, mushroom & tomato quiche before which was okay and almost what you're suggesting. Proper fry-up is tops for me though.

I see the light with this. I'm baking a caramelised onion and feta tart at the weekend, so may keep some pastry aside to give it a go! Although maybe try lining all sides with buttered bread to make it more of a pudding...?

surely you're just putting this in a pastry case?

Naah. He'd break his teeth on that.

Sounds like a quiche with sausage, black pud, and a top.

I came seek pictures after the initial tread title. How wrong I was.

No pictures - no legality i'm afraid.

Although I'm tempted to give it a try.

That doesn't look very nice in my opinion.

My work did a "Breakfast Bread" for a while on our brunch menu a few years back. Chopped sausages, cherry tomatoes, bacon, egg and mushrooms etc baked in a sundried tomato and parmesan dough. Went down very very well smile

I had a Mad O'Rourkes xmas pie many years ago which was basically a christmas dinner in a pie, so I dont see why this wouldnt work!
