  • 2 Green Bell Peppers, thinly sliced
  • 1 Yellow Onion, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp. Dried Basil
  • 1/2 tsp. Dried Oregano
  • 1/4 tsp. Salt
  • 1-15 oz. Can of Whole Peeled Tomatoes

  • 1.5 cups Shredded Mozzarella

Step Description
1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill sausages for about 2 minutes on each side until grill marks appear. Set aside and slice into 1” pieces.
2
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onion and sauté for 3–5 minutes until softened and slightly browned.
3
Add green and red peppers, garlic powder, dried basil, oregano, and salt. Cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Add whole peeled tomatoes with juice and water. Use a spoon to crush the tomatoes and mix them with the vegetables.
5
Add tomato paste and sliced sausage. Stir well, cover with lid, and reduce heat to medium-low.
6
Continue cooking until internal temperature of sausage slices reaches 160–165°F using your ThermoPro TP15H thermometer.
7
Uncover and stir. If too liquidy, cook uncovered for a few minutes until thickened.
8
Remove from heat and preheat your broiler.
9
Slice 4 hero rolls and lay cut-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet.
10
Fill rolls with sausage and peppers. Top with shredded cheese and broil until melted and slightly browned. Garnish with oregano and fresh basil. Fold and enjoy!
