Sausage Rolls

Sausage Rolls



These are one of our most favourite appetizers I make at our house. I came up with this idea as a way to have a snack that tastes like it is really bad for you (read: yummy) but is actually not too high in calories. The trick to is is make the pastry really thin, because that is where the majority of the calories lie. These sausage rolls are so easy to make and so delicious that you'll never want the store-bought frozen variety again!
INGREDIENTS 
1 package frozen Puff pastry (2 blocks per package)
450g Ground turkey 
2 packs 600g Hot turkey Sausage
1 cup Italian bread crumbs 
2 tsp Minced garlic
2 tbsp Italian seasoning
1 egg

Yields: approx 72 appetizer size sausage rolls


Directions 


  1. Preheat oven to 400°F
  2. Line baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
