Sausage Roll

 I follow Jenna Bush Hager on Instagram.  She recently published this recipe for Sausage roll.  I had to try it.    I didn't get the back story, but it is someone's grandma's famous recipe.  It was fun and easy to make and very tasty.




Sausage Roll

1 lb pizza dough 
1 1/2 lbs sausage (you can use sweet or hot)
 2 cups shredded Mozzarella cheese
Garlic powder
Black pepper
Olive oil for brushing the top
Dried oregano

Preheat oven to 350
On a floured pastry board, roll out dough to abou 12 x 8 inches.  Let dough rest for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, break up sausage in a skillet over med heat and cook until browned.  Drain.
Spread the sausage and the cheese onto the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch all around the edge.  Sprinkle with garlic powder and black pepper.  Roll the dough up like a cinnamon roll.  Crimp it closed and place seam side down on the baking sheet.  Brush with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano.
  Bake until golden.  It should be about 30-35 minutes.

Slice.  We liked it served with  Marinara sauce for dipping or topping.
