2. NO ADVERTISING
This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.
3. NO MEMES
4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD
Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

We always called it a Toad in a Hole. But we'd always stack ham and cheese over it with the bread piece on the very top. My father was always excited to make them for everyone on the weekends.
My family called these bird nests
Ooh, I do like that name as well.
One-eyed Jack was what my father called it.
This is what my Dad called it and you are the first person I've ever heard besides him do it.
I wonder if it's regional, are you from NY/New England area?
Sometimes he would also call it "Frog in a Log" but that could have just been him being goofy.
The "official" name I've heard since then is Eggs in a Basket.
Toad in a hole is sausage in a pie dough, but it seems that name was reused in a limited number of us regions. Egg+bread is egg in a nest in pretty much all other UK colonized regions and in the UK.
In the UK toad in the hole is sausages in Yorkshire pudding.
Yep not sure why I said pie dough, this is what happens when I Lemmy before coffee
If you're not familiar with yorkshire pudding, you might mistake it for pie crust.
We called it “eggs in the basket”
I grew up with "egg in a nest."
Yeah, Eastern Seaboard. Could be Regional.
Growing up in New England we called them “egg with a hat”
