Stuffed Spinach and Sausage Bread

You can use any bread dough

For the spinach and feta bread

1 large bag of fresh spinach
1 container of feta cheese
Pecorino Romano cheese to taste
Olive oil
Garlic powder
Salt and pepper

Cook and drain the spinach. Add the garlic powder and other ingredients. Let cool.

For the sausage bread

Sausage taken out of casing
Sweet red pepper, chopped
Onion, chopped
Garlic, minced
Olive oil
Pecorino Romano cheese
Salt and pepper

Sauté the pepper and onions and garlic. Add chunks of sausage. Cook until brown. I add some chicken broth if the mixture gets too dry. When it’s done, add your cheese and let cool.

Roll out your dough. I use a rolling pin to spread it out as large as your pan. On the dough I rub olive oil almost to ends of dough. Then I sprinkle salt and pepper, garlic powder and more cheese.

Then I spread out the spinach or sausage mixture almost to end of dough. Take the shortest end and roll like a pinwheel tucking in the sides as you go.

Seal the end with an egg wash. Place on a well oiled sheet pan. Poke holes over the top with a fork to let the steam out. Bake at 400 degrees until bottom is browned and it starts to smell good.
