Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  1. Preheat broiler to high.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
