Pizza Boats

Its cold outside, and I felt the need for some comfort food.  So tonight I made my pizza boats.  Not very healthy, but they are so good and so easy to make.

For the pizza boats, you will need:

1 lbs Italian Sausage
1 can pizza sauce
minced garlic (to taste)  I used about 2-3 tbs
1/2 onion, diced
32 pepperoni slices
8 slices Provolone cheese
8 slices Mozzarella cheese
4 hoagie buns

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees
• Brown Italian sausage in olive oil.
• Add onion and garlic and saute until soft
• Add pizza sauce and heat.
• Place hoagie buns on cookie sheet.  Cut in half in needed

• Spread meat mixture over buns evenly
• Place 4 pieces of pepperoni on each hoagie
• Slice the cheeses in half and put over each hoagie  
• Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and start turning brown.

These are one of my go to recipes and make a little to often.




To lighten this up health wise  you could use ground Italian turkey, turkey pepperoni, and part skim mozzarella  cheese and omit the provolone cheese.
