Italian Sausage Subs


Sharing is caring!

Italian sausage subs have always been a favorite of mine. Made with peppers and onions, usually provolone.

You want FOOD.

Like, I’ve worked my ass off all day, I’m starving FOOD.

 

You know how there are those recipes you make that come to mind when you’re really, really hungry and you’re not willing to settle for any bullshit food.

You want it NOW and it needs to be GOOD.

These ared the epitome of comfort food.

I usually like to add an obscene amount of mustard in lieu of the cheese sauce; but the cheese sauce I made this time was so good I had to share.

Is it obvious I’m hungry?

    Shea, this sub is absolutely drool worthy! My boys literally live off sandwiches like this. I am definitely going to have to make it… LOVE the way you made it with Havarti cheese! (My fave!)
