4 sausages, hot or sweet
2 cups of mushrooms
1 Loaf of Italian Bread
1 Clove of Garlic
1 cup Olive Oil
1 pound of fresh Mozzarella cheese
A dash of oregano
A dash of basil
6-8 Cherry tomatoes

Directions: Cook sausage to almost perfection in your favorite oils, add mushrooms and simmer. Slice Italian bread in four then separate top and bottom and align on a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over bread. Press garlic to spread over oil on bread. Once mushrooms and sausage are equally perfected, dice in bite size pieces and layer on top of bread. Sprinkle oregano. Slice your mozzarella and layer on top of sausage and mushrooms. Cut cherry tomatoes in half and place on top of the mozzarella. Place in the oven at 350-degrees for 10 minutes until mozzarella is melted to desired consistency. Take fresh basil, slip into uncooked olive oil, drip for a few seconds then set by tomatoes to top it off. Serve warm.
