Italian Dunkers

Simpleness and Awesomeness all in one quick and easy dish!  Serves 6-8.  Ready in 20 minutes.

Ingredients:
12-16 oz. Italian Sausage (or ground beef, turkey, or simply leave it out for a meatless meal)
1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce
1 loaf whole grain bread from the bakery
Olive oil
2-3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Directions:
Brown and crumble the sausage, then drain off any fat.  In a pot mix the cooked sausage and the marinara sauce.  

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.  Lay the slices of bread out on a sheet pan lined with aluminum foil to make clean-up easy.  Drizzle the bread with olive oil.  Sprinkle with as much cheese as desired. Bake for about 10 minutes or until it develops a nice brown, bubbly, cheesy crust on top.

Serve hot.  Dunk cheesy yummy bread into your sauce and sit back and enjoy.  This is wonderful with a light side salad.
