I definitely will! I love empanadas, samosas, wontons, and Jamaican patties, so I'm sure I'd love one. Meat and crust - mmmm.0 -

I used to cook sausages, let them cool, then wrap them in bacon, lie them on puff with grated cheese, roll it up and bake them.
There ain't nuthin' low cal about that though LOL.0 -

Honestly... I'd just buy one, enjoy it, and move on. I've found that making lower calorie dishes are often not satisfying, and you end up eating the full calories thing later anyway as your craving isn't gone... 350 calories isn't that much and I'm sure it's still relatively filling too.0

ohhh mate if you see my post I put on my news feed today, I had two of those sausage rolls and a yum yum and completely ruined the healthy meals for the rest of the days...cant stay away..or those steak and cheese rolls! thankfully the app hasn't got the calories for that one.. probably on par or worst!
Low calorie sausage rolls though...don't think there's such really loool0 -
Though they're no Greggs, i sometimes have the frozen mini sausage rolls. I used to eat two Gregg's ones in one go without even thinking twice.0

The best advice I have is for any meal: deconstruct the entire dish and swap out what you can - turkey or low cal sausage for pork sausage, add in some finely chopped veg (mushroom works for beefy kinds of recipes) for moisture, and make your phyllo (low fat already) wrapped sausage dish and bake instead of fry. Done!0

Do you have Pillsbury 90 calorie Crescent rolls over there?
You could even roll them out and cut the triangles into 2 more triangles making the outside 45 calories each.
These have the flaky sort of properties but don't taste like bread.0 -
Honestly? Some things just aren't worth substituting out. Have them as an occasional indulgence, and enjoy them all the more when you do have them.0

How about eating half a roll?
You might try a biscuit dough which is pretty easy for beginners. It will be lower in fat but it won't be the same texture.
We have sausage rolls in Canada. A slightly stronger EU influence here.0 -

*shrugs*. You can enjoy your ascetic deprivation if that's what works for you.
I enjoy the occasional deliberate indulgence. That something has 50% fat doesn't make it a non-option for me. Sure, my macros are frequently not optimal, but that's between me, my scale, and my doctor.
Enjoy the real thing in moderation is a viable solution. In the instant circumstance, it seems that most attempts at a substitute are going to result in a vastly inferior product, with negligible nutritive improvement. (I may be incorrect, but it's for the OP to decide.) Given a negligible improvement for a lesser experience, my opinion is go for the real thing. Your mileage, and that of the OP, may vary.

They sell reduced fat puff pastry at supermarkets near me, but I'm in NZ so that may not be much help haha. I have made lower cal sausage rolls by subbing half sausage meat for lean mince, and bulking out the mix with grated and finely cut veggies like onion, carrot, and zucchini. Pretty tasty and really helps with sausage roll cravings! May have to make some soon, really wanting one now!0
