Cheesy Pork Sausage Flatbreads
with Roasted Pepper and Onion
Are you the type of person who only goes to baseball games for that huge Italian hoagie stuffed with sausage, peppers, and cheese? We’re with you! This week, our chefs took the beloved dish from stadium fare to stellar weeknight dinner with a few delicious twists. First, they dropped the hoagie and replaced it with golden, crispy flatbread. They then spread with a rich tomato sauce and topped with sweet roasted pepper slices and savory sausage. Finally, they topped it with 2 different kinds of cheese. Yep, it’s safe to say this dish is a home run.
Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Instructions
Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Slice top off green pepper. Core, then cut into ½-inch-thick rounds.
Toss onion and green pepper on a lightly oiled baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Add sausage to sheet. Roast on top rack, flipping halfway through, until veggies are tender and sausage is cooked through, 15-17 minutes. (For 4 servings, you may need to divide between 2 sheets.)
Meanwhile, add ¼ cup water and 2 TBSP butter (⅓ cup water and 3 TBSP butter for 4 servings) to a medium, microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until water is hot and butter has melted, about 1 minute. Whisk in tomato paste until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
Once roasted, remove veggies and sausage from baking sheet. Place flatbreads on same sheet. (For 4 servings, divide between both baking sheets as you did before.) Toast on top rack of oven until golden, 3-4 minutes. Meanwhile, slice sausage into ½-inchthick pieces on a diagonal.
Once flatbreads are toasted, remove from oven and heat broiler to high or oven to 500 degrees. Evenly spread flatbreads with sauce, then top with cheeses, sausage, and veggies. Season with salt and pepper. Broil or bake until cheeses have melted and flatbreads are golden brown, 3-5 minutes. (For 4 servings, broil or bake in batches.) TIP: Watch carefully for any burning.
Allow flatbreads to cool slightly, then slice into pieces. Serve.
