Italian Sausage Bread

1 package Mild Italian Sausage
Large pinch or to taste Red Pepper Flakes
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 green pepper, diced
1 onion, diced
6 medium to large white mushrooms, sliced
1 jar pizza sauce
French bread
2 cups mozzarella cheese

In a large sauté pan, fry the sausage with red pepper flakes until browned.
Salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the sausage from the pan, leaving in about 1 Tbsp. of the drippings or add in 1 Tbsp. of olive oil.
Sauté the onion, green pepper and mushrooms until softened.
Add the sausage back in and then the pizza sauce.
Let simmer for about 10 min. with a lid on.
If it is too thin let it reduce with the lid off.
Meanwhile slice loaf in half and pull out some of the middle of the bread.
Place the hot sausage mixture in the two halves of the bread.
Top with lots of cheese and broil until melted. Slice and serve hot.
