PIZZAIOLA-----------------
1 lb Italian sweet sausage, remo
2 ts Olive oil
1/2 lb Mushrooms, sliced
1/4 c Chopped onions
1 Red bell pepper, roasted, s
6 oz Jar marinated artichoke hea
8 Kalamata olives, pitted & c
2 Garlic cloves, chopped
6 Plum tomatoes, cut into 1/4
1/2 ts Italian seasoning
4 tb Chopped fresh basil
Salt & freshly ground black
8 Small or 4 large French sou
4 tb Grated Romano cheese
Cubed

Brown sausage slowly, rendering as much grease as
possible. Submerge sausage in boiling water for 10-15
seconds to allow more grease to float away. Saute
mushrooms, onions, red pepper, artichoke hearts,
olives, garlic in olive oil until crisp-tender, about
3-4 minutes. Add tomatoes, Italian seasoning, basil
and sausage. Reduce heat and simmer until it is of the
right consistency. Add salt & pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, cut tops off rolls and hollow them out.
Then place in 350F oven for a few minutes until crusts
are crisp. Fill each roll with sausage/vegetable
mixture. Sprinkle Romano atop each roll and place
under broiler just until cheese starts to melt. Serve
this alongside a green salad with Italian dressing*
and a glass of Bardolino or Chianti. *If you make your
own Italian dressing, save the artichoke marinade to
mix into the dressing. Serves 4. Enjoy.
