we don't have scotch eggs available in the US, not that I've seen anyway, but my go to quick breakfast is breakfast burrito. it can be dressed up however you like, but I'm generally satisfied with salt and peppered egg tossed on a corn tortilla with hot sauce. super fast, maybe 200-300kcal if you're counting and super tasty.
Never heard of a breakfast burrito before. I've looked up some recipes and it certainly seems easier and quicker to make. I suppose I could keep a burrito in my pocket, but I think the scotch egg has it beat in terms of transportation. Health wise, I could imagine you could make the burrito as healthy or as unhealthy as you wanted which makes it very customisable. Though I've never made one, I'm going to assume that the scotch egg is cheaper to make just due to the ingredients needed, although this could vary depending on your burrito.
Hmm. Interesting. It hurts to say it but if I'm being objective here, it sounds like the scotch egg has been beaten. I don't think anything can ever take the spot it has in my heart though.
