1-2 hrs

ingredients

2 loaves (1 lb. size) frozen white bread dough, thawed
1/2 pound mild pork sausage
1/2 pound hot pork sausage
1 1/2 cup fresh mushrooms, diced
1/2 cup onion, chopped
3 eggs
1 1/2 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
1 teaspoon garlic powder

directions

Allow dough to rise until nearly doubled.

Meanwhile, in a skillet over medium heat, cook and crumble sausage. Add mushrooms and onion. Cook and stir until the sausage is browned and vegetables are tender; drain. Set aside to cool.

Beat 1 egg; set aside. Beat remaining 2 eggs; add to sausage mixture. Add cheese and seasonings, mixing well.

Roll each loaf of dough into a 16x12" rectangle. Spread half of the sausage mixture on each loaf to within 1" of edges. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting at a narrow end; seal edges.

Place in a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes; brush with the reserved beaten egg. Bake 5-10 minutes more or until golden brown. Serve warm.
