Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 1/3 cup chopped onion
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 cup chopped fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh mushrooms
  • 3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

I used this yummy filling with my own roll dough and baked and froze them to use for quick lunches. They are delicious! I have also used canned mushrooms in place of fresh and the change is fine.
