I don't remember where I got this recipe, but it is a real keeper. It is easy, but looks complicated. My family loved it and the best thing is that you just serve a simple green salad with it and you have a complete meal. You can substitute ground beef for the sausage if you don't want the spicy taste of the sausage.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground sausage
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped bell pepper
1 medium tomato, chopped
1 can chunky italian-style tomato sauce
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon anise seed
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 loaf french bread
1/4-1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
coarsely ground pepper
Directions:
1. In a skillet, cook sausage until no longer pink.
2. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, cook onion and green pepper until tender, drain.
4. Stir in tomato sauce, tomatoes and seasonings.
5. Add meat to sauce.
6. Cut a wedge out of top of bread about 2 inches wide and 3/4 way through the loaf.
7. Fill loaf with meat sauce.
8. Sprinkle with cheese and ground pepper.
9. Wrap in heavy-duty foil.
10. Bake at 400 degrees for 15 to 30 minutes or until heated through.
