Sausage Melts

This was last nights dinner. I'm trying to use items from the garden as much as possible right now, before the frost comes and wipes everything else. These were thrown together off the top of my head. They worked, and I will likely make again. Enjoy!

Sausage Melts

  • 1/2 tbsp EVOO
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • sprinkle of salt
  • 1 green pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tomato, diced
  • fresh cracked pepper
  • 2 kaiser buns, sliced in half (or 2 large hamburger buns), toasted
  • 4 sausages, cooked (preferably BBQ'd), and sliced into 1/2" pcs
  • 1/2 cup (ish) shredded cheddar cheese
1. Turn oven on to broil.
2. In a small frypan over med-high, warm olive oil, then add onions. Sprinkle with salt. Allow to soften for 3-4 minutes before adding pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes (or until peppers are soft), stirring often, then toss in minced garlic. 30 seconds after adding garlic, add tomatoes and reduce heat to low. Sprinkle with some pepper, and leave on burner for another 2-3 minutes (to soften tomatoes).
3. Place toasted buns on cookie sheet, cut side up). Place sliced sausages on buns. Divide onion/pepper mixture evenly over 4 sausage buns. Top with shredded cheese and place in broiler.
4. Broil buns for about 2 minutes, or until cheese is bubbly. Remove from oven, serve and ENJOY!

*These are great as is, and even better topped with a little homemade salsa!*
