Sausage rolls

Today we're having a bit of a get together. On the lunch menu we have one of our firm favourites - SAUSAGE ROLLS.
Calories in these sausage rolls are not as bad as I imagined because of the high meat content. Cooking from scratch means you take control of the ingredients. Quite often we'll end up with a lower calorie meal, compared to its ready made equivalent. 
We think these home made sausage rolls are brilliant - a bit of a cooking cheat, and just so easy and quick to make. Everyone will love coming to your house if you make these meaty sausage rolls, which will disappear in no time. Save time: double up on quantity and put some uncooked sausage rolls into the freezer. Here's our cheat's sausage roll recipe:

HOME MADE SAUSAGE ROLLS
Ingredients

500g of good sausages with a high meat content (above 80%).  
500g packet of ready made flaky or puff pastry
one beaten egg (or milk) 
****
Roll out the pastry and cut into strips wide enough to take the sausage meat.  

Remove sausage skins and shape into long thin sausage strips.

Place sausage meat onto the pastry.  

Wrap the pastry around the sausage meat and seal the edges with a little milk or egg.

Brush the top with beaten egg or milk.  

Cut into whatever size you want and cook in a hottish oven, around 180ÂșC, until brown (approximately 20 - 30 mins).

REMEMBER: We all have a calorie allowance - do you know yours?
We began our weight loss journey in January 2011 - and began our blog in June 2011. Here's a link to the first post. (here's the link).
We like to post our main meals to show you what CAN be eaten. You won’t find us posting every last morsel though – but we hope this gives you an idea of how far calories can go! I'm currently going through the photographs and replacing them with more website friendly versions which will allow the blog to load quickly.
