Pigs in Blankets

I had a scio treatment last night and it left me wide awake but stupified for lack of sleep if that makes sense. Well it does to me. Between repeated jaunts to the loo, and much tossing and turning in a desperate need to focus on something non miserable I came up with a great way to use leftover knackwurst. You know how pesky those leftovers can be and when you buy things in a pack they seem to multiply overnight in the fridge. Must be the dark.
Right, on to the pigs. These are leftover boiled knackers. I wouldn't use them au naturel though it says on the pack you can. They are disgusting. Right boiled cold knackers and a thawed piece of PC puff pastry. Cut into six pieces[ the pastry] and wrap the piggy tight with little head and feet hanging out. Prick all over with a fork and slam into a 400 degree oven on a parchmented baking sheet until they smell good. They will be golden brown on top and darker on the bottom and Red Hot so eat with caution. Really delish. Can have with hot mustard and also good cold. Pastry is crumbly so have a bib handy.
There, I had a cup of cocoa today. That means there may be another bad night so we will see what comes up food wise.
