Bbq Italian Sausage And Pepper Pie Food

SAUSAGE AND PEPPER "PIE"

Steps:

• *Hot, sweet or specially flavored is fine. If you're using links, cut into 1/4-inch slices. If using bulk sausage, brown and drain.

• Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Saute the bell pepper and onions about 5 minutes, or until the onion turns translucent.
• Pat one package (do NOT separate into individual rolls) of the crescent roll dough into a rectangle on prepared baking sheet, sealing seams.
• Layer the cheeses on top of the roll dough. Spread the sausage evenly over the cheese. Spread peppers and onions over the sausage.
• Open remaining rolls-again do NOT separate. Lay them across the top of the "pie" sealing seams and ends as best you can-it's OK if it looks a bit "rustic."
• Sprinkle parmesan cheese on the top "crust."
• Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until roll dough is golden brown.
