Years ago I belonged to a group of historic re-enactors called the Cold Point Free Trappers, so called because our cabin was in a spot in Cabell county WV called Cold Point. I would fix these eggs for as many as were there for our weekend get together in the late fall, winter and early spring, sometimes for as many as a dozen or more. It's a great way to feed a lot of people well. Hope you enjoy.

yield 3 -4 but can be expanded to feed as many as you need
