Pizza Hoagies

My husband and three sons love these crispy sandwiches filled with a moist pizza-flavored mixture. I often make them on a weekend and double the recipe. On week-nights when I'm busy or helping my son with homework, I pop the sandwiches in the oven and have a family-pleasing dinner on the table without a lot of effort. —Barbara Mery

With Johnsonville Italian Sausage.
Featured Sponsor
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 can (15 ounces) pizza sauce
1/4 cup chopped ripe olives
2 teaspoons dried basil
1 teaspoon dried oregano
8 hoagie or submarine sandwich buns or French rolls
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

In a large skillet, cook beef and onion over medium heat until meat
is no longer pink; drain. Stir in pizza sauce, olives, basil and
oregano. Cook for 10 minutes or until heated through.
Cut 1/4 in. off the top of each roll; set aside. Carefully hollow out
bottom of roll, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or
save for another use). Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese inside each
shell. Fill each with about 1/2 cup meat mixture. Sprinkle with
remaining cheese, gently pressing down to flatten. Replace bread
tops.
Individually wrap four sandwiches tightly in foil; freeze for up to 3
months. Place remaining sandwiches on a baking sheet. Bake at
375° for 15 minutes or until heated through.
To use frozen hoagies: Place foil wrapped hoagies on baking sheets.
