Before you jump to Veggie Sausage Rolls recipe, you may want to read this short interesting healthy tips about Natural health supplements.
These days, you can’t be too concerned about your health. With possible toxins and lower nutritional values found in the foods we eat and the things we drink, many people have taken to buying supplements to help aid their health. Here’s a list of natural health supplements that can lead you to a more sound and healthy way of life:
Saint John’s Wort: Used for over 2,000 years, this supplement is a simple plant that can greatly aid depression. One of the most widely used natural health supplements, in a double-blind clinical study, Saint John’s Wort was proven to be equally as effective as pharmaceutical antidepressants, while giving less side-effects then their drug company counterpart.
Bee pollen: People take bee pollen in supplement form to help increase energy and vitality. In addition to offering several required vitamins and minerals, bee pollen acts as an enhancer to the immune system, as well as being a useful tool in cleansing the body of harmful toxins.
Athletes have been known to take bee pollen regularly to help enhance their endurance, stamina, recovery time from exercise, and more. It may also prove to be helpful in alleviating the pesky symptoms of hay fever. With all these possible uses of bee pollen, it’s amazing to find out that it can also be used to aid in weight loss. A substance in the pollen known as lecithin helps to stimulate your metabolism and flush fat from your system. This is another one of the most widely used natural health supplements.
Fish Oil:
Harvested from the bodies of fish, fish oil is purified through a scientific process and turned into supplement form. Containing Omega-3 fatty acids, these natural health supplements can have numerous effects on your body for the better. For one, fish oil can aid in preventing the onset of Alzheimer’s disease. It has also been associated with better memory, clearer thinking, and health of the heart.
One of the best nutrients for brain health, this supplement’s effect on your body can be vast. Be sure to only purchase pharmaceutical grade fish oil, however, since this is the process which removes the heavy metals found in fish due to pollutants. If your fish oil is not pharmaceutical grade, you run the risk of consuming such dangerous materials as mercury.

We hope you got insight from reading it, now let’s go back to recipe. To cook Veggie Sausage Rolls you need a few ingredients and a few steps. Here is how you do it.
How to Make Veggie Sausage Rolls
INGREDIENTS
- 1 tsp oil
- 1 medium courgette (zucchini), grated
- 1 large carrot, grated
- 1 clove garlic, crushed or finely chopped
- 350g sausage meat / 12oz
- 1 sheet ready rolled puff pastry (approx 230g)
- 1 egg, beaten
- optional: 1/2 tbsp poppy seeds or sesame seeds to decorate
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat the oven the 180c / 350f and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan and add in the grated courgette, grated carrot and the garlic. Cook on a low heat until the vegetables have softened for about 4 minutes. Don’t let them brown, you just want them soft. Once the vegetables are cooked, add them to a large bowl along with the sausage meat and mix well.
- While the mixture is cooling take your sheet of puffed pastry and cut it in half lengthways so that you have two rectangle shaped pieces. Divide the sausage meat mixture into two and spread each piece down the middle of the pastry sheets, leaving a gap of about 1cm either side.
- Roll the pastry over the sausage meat mixture so that the two edges meet. Press down with a fork to seal it.
- Cut the sausage rolls into whatever size you like. I made 8 large-ish size rolls from mine but you could make 16 small ones too. Place the sausage rolls onto the baking sheet and brush with a little beaten egg. Sprinkle some poppy or sesame seeds on top.
- Cook in the oven for 25-35 minutes (time will depend on the size of the sausage rolls so be sure to check them often from 25 minutes) until golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve immediately with a side salad or some mixed vegetables.
NOTES
FREEZING INSTRUCTIONS:These sausage rolls can be made ahead and frozen. Simply follow the instructions as normal but instead of egg washing and baking them, freeze them in a single layer and then transfer to a freezer bag or container.
They can then be baked from frozen. Brush them with a little egg wash and cook as normal. They may need an extra 5 – 10 minutes in the oven.
