Summer has well and truly abandoned us here in the UK. The wind and rain has returned with a vengeance and I’m reluctantly packing away the shorts and sun hats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Despite struggling with the cold one thing I am enjoying is the return of warm and comforting food! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salads and simple dishes are nice for a couple of months but come this time of year I am always more than ready to start tucking into deliciously warming meals and proper winter comfort food again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And to kick off Autumn I knew the first thing I had to make were my irresistible Hidden Veggie Sausage Rolls!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My whole family is sausage roll obsessed. They would pretty much eat them day in day out if I let them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately sausage rolls don’t have the healthiest of reputations but by making them at home you can control, at least to some extent, what goes into them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hidden Veg Sausage Roll Ingredients<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I used ready rolled puffed pastry sheets for this recipe. No … I don’t make my own pastry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, unless you really enjoy making pastry life is just too darn short to be sweating over layers of puff! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The sausage meat I get from my local butcher, but any kind of sausage meat will be good or just cut the skins away from regular sausages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then there’s the hidden veggies! I grated a carrot and courgette (zucchini), gently fried them to remove the crunch and mixed it in with the sausage meat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cut the puff pastry in half across the longer length so that you have two equal sized rectangles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Divide the sausage and veg mixture between both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Roll the pastry over and crimp the edges with a fork to seal them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Cut each roll into either 4 pieces, making 8 in total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or 8 pieces each, making 16 sausage rolls in total.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Add some beaten egg to the top and sprinkle on sesame or poppy seeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes and you have the most delicious sausage rolls, packed with hidden veggies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A firm family favourite!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These Sausage Rolls are so delicious for lunch at home. I serve them up with some chopped fresh veggies like carrot, cucumber and cherry tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They’re also brilliant to batch make for a party or gathering or to take out for a picnic in the park.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
