Sausage roll recipe for TJ

On a day when I really needed it an old friend told me he read my blog. I was thrilled when he told me this and then to also ask for my sausage roll recipe - well that was hard proof he REALLY had looked at it. Thanks TJ !

Now comes the embarrassing culinary truth, TJ... World ... Sausage rolls are crazy simple.... Take the ingredient list for example :

Pepperidge farm puff pastry sheets
Jimmy dean sausage

Yeek. I know - 2 items. The hardest part comes next. Assembly:

Unwrap package of pastry.

Rest a while. You deserve a break after all that unwrapping angst

Next flour a hard surface and roll out the pastry sheet so it's about 1/2 as thick as it comes out of the package. Cut in half length ways.

On the first piece put a generous line of sausage (:-) ) in the middle of the pastry length ways. Roll it up, crimp the edges together and slice into chunks. Bake until golden.

These are so delicious. Everyone loves them and I am definatley making then for thanksgiving.

In NZ a lot of people make them more fancy than I.. You can add herbs and onion to the meat - I've even known people that have put chopped apple into the mix. But I like it to be simple.

Thanks TJ for reading. Let me know how the sausage rolls turn out.
