MY MOM always made this for us after she fried up the bacon. STILL LOVE IT! Thanks

I've always loved this dish and it's great fun for the kids. There are so many variations that you could never tire of this dish. I served with fried green tomatos from my own garden. Zaar World Tour 05

Toad in the Hole is one of our family favourites. I use the same recipe, but I cook it in muffin tins. I boil the sausage for about 10 minutes and then cut each into three pieces and put in the muffin tins before I warm them up in the oven.
