Remodelled sausage, pepper & onion sub

The word de-constructed has been used too much till it becomes rather overrated. Elizabeth Falkner, the ninja chef, said she’d rather use the word remodelled, so I’m going with that too. This dish is made with the last batch of hot Italian sausage mix. If I had had some hot dog buns, I would’ve made the classic sub but I didn’t so I tend to just bake everything with an egg on top. This makes a delicious brunch or lunch.

This is how the sub would’ve looked….

This probably would’ve remained uber-healthy but I went and ruined it by adding lots of cheddar cheese on top. I can’t help it. It’s a weakness.
