Italian Sausage Hoagies
- 8 ounces hoagie rolls — halved lengthwise
- 9 ounces sweet turkey Italian sausage — cut into 1-inch-thick pieces
- 1/2 cup prechopped onion
- 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic
- 1 cup lower-sodium marinara sauce — (such as Amy's)
- 1 small red bell pepper — thinly sliced
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 1/4 ounces shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese — (about 1/2 cup)
- Preheat broiler to high.
- Hollow out top halves of rolls. Arrange rolls, cut sides up, on a baking sheet. Broil 1 1/2 minutes or until toasted. Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage to pan; cook 2 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Add onion and garlic; cook 1 minute. Add marinara, bell pepper, and black pepper; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 6 minutes or until bell pepper is crisp-tender.
- Arrange about 3/4 cup sausage mixture over bottom half of each roll; sprinkle each serving with about 2 tablespoons cheese. Place on a baking sheet; broil 2 minutes or until cheese melts. Top with top halves of rolls.
