What do you do with day old Italian bread, left over sauce, sausage and meatballs?? Make a pizza out of it!! It’s so easy.   

Here’s what you’ll need:

  • Italian bread, sliced lengthwise 
  • Olive oil
  • garlic powder
  • dried oregano
  • S & P
  • Homemade tomato sauce
  • Italian sausage, precooked (preferably in the sauce) and sliced thin
  • Meatballs, precooked (again in the sauce) and sliced
  • Parmesan cheese, grated
  • Mozzarella cheese, shredded

  
 What to do:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
  2. spread olive oil over the bread along with garlic powder, oregano, S & P, and parm cheese. 
  3. Place on a sheet tray and toast in the oven for 5 minutes. 
  4. Remove and top with tomato sauce, sausage, and meatballs. Then top with more Parmesan and Mozzarella cheese.  
  5. Bake for 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned. 

I have to admit, I’m not ready to give up my family recipe for traditional Italian sauce (aka gravy). It is the first thing I learned to cook on my own and is close to my heart. So, I’ve found a great comp that you can use as a guide so that you can make your own! Click the link to find that along with a meatball recipe. You should know by now that I never buy pre-made 🤓

Enjoy!
