Italian Sausage Et Al
Posted Wed, 12/10/03
The other day my father was on a recipe search for Italian Sausage Sandwiches. I did some browsing and found a decent rendition at the web site Nikki's Recipes.
Dad gave the dish a try and said it was excellent:
Italian Sausage Sandwiches
3/4 LB bulk Italian sausage or ground beef
1 jar (16 oz.) spaghetti sauce
1/2 C sliced pitted ripe olives
4 French-style rolls
4 slices Mozzarella cheese
Preheat oven to 375-degrees F. In a skillet, brown sausage and drain off fat. Stir in sauce and olives; heat through. Split rolls lengthwise without cutting through opposite side. Hollow out buns slightly. Halve cheese slices lengthwise. Place a piece of cheese on bottom half of each roll. Divide meat mixture evenly among the four rolls. Place another cheese slice atop meat; close rolls. Wrap each sandwich in foil and seal. Place on a baking sheet. Bake wrapped sandwiches for fifteen minutes. Unwrap and serve. Recipe makes four servings.
When I lived in Pocatello, Idaho a few years ago there was an Italian restaurant in town which made the best sausage sandwich I've ever tasted. I have never found another like it, but I'm hoping the aforementioned recipe fits the bill.
