Three loaves of challah. I'll put a dozen eggs in my meat loaf... two
eggs per pound of meat and I never grind less than five pounds. When
I boil eggs it's always the whole dozen, some times I do pickled eggs
and could be 2-3 dozen... natcherly cracked after cooking.

The way my in-laws make Easter pie, uses a lot of eggs. It's basically
eggs, Italian meats and cheeses and some Acini Di Pepe, baked into pie pans.
No crust. You have to make a lot of them at once. The tradition is to use
them to break the fast that they do for the holiday. You then would go
around visiting peopled where you would have a sliver of this pie and
whatever else they are serving. And they will give you a pie to take home.
Each family has their own recipe and they are all different.

I think the recipe as written uses 2 or 3 dozen eggs but it makes so many
pies, it was unbelievable the first time that I made it. I have since come
up with my own version that likely has less varieties of meats and cheeses
but leaves me with a more manageable amount. I usually have two large pies.
One to serve, one for later. And enough medium sized ones for each family
to take home.

I have also made things like spinach, broccoli or zucchini pie that use a
lot of eggs and things like breakfast casserole. I used to make quite a lot
of that for my in-laws after my MIL took ill. I could cut them in squares
and freeze them so they would have enough food to last them until the next
time I visited. I also made those a lot when we lived on Cape Cod. We
often had people staying with us and I might be at work when they got up for
the day. So I usually left a basket of some kind of rolls or quick bread
out, along with some fruit and a note that there was breakfast casserole in
the fridge.

But even just to make scrambled eggs, making a dozen at a time is not all
that unreasonable. Especially if you have a large family or are cooking for
guests.

Some yellow cake recipes call for a lot of yolks.
