Sooooo yummy! I made a melt for breakfast this morning and absolutely loved it! I used a hot sausage, spicy tomato and basil pasta sauce and mozzarella cheese. I subbed diced onions and sliced mushrooms for the green pepper since I don't like them cooked. Perfection! Thanks for sharing another great recipe, Lori! **Made for Fall PAC 2009**

Better than I thought it would be. Made without the peppers for DS, and with for everyone else. Both were excellent. Thanks for posting. Made for Holiday Tag.

Wonderful! So simple and yet so tasty! My family loved it. Even my picky son. I added in the rest of a jar of flame roasted sweet peppers. I think it worked out to about 1/2 to 3/4 cup. This will be repeated in our house many times!

Easy & delicious. Fast, too, because I cooked the peppers in the same skillet with the sausage - I also added some diced onion because it seemed to go with it. Served on french rolls.
