Cooking Steps
• Adjust racks to middle and top positions (middle, top, and bottom positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Halve, core, and slice bell peppers into strips. Halve, peel, and cut onion into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve baguettes lengthwise.
• Toss bell peppers and onion on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of olive oil, half the Italian Seasoning (all for 4 servings), half the garlic powder (you’ll use more in the next step), and a big pinch of salt and pepper. (For 4, divide veggies between 2 sheets.) • Place sausage* on same sheet. • Roast on middle rack until veggies are browned and tender and sausage is cooked through, 18-20 minutes. (For 4, roast on middle and top racks.)
• Meanwhile, place 3 TBSP butter (6 TBSP for 4 servings) in a small microwave-safe bowl; microwave until just softened, 10-15 seconds. Stir in half the remaining garlic powder and season with salt and pepper. • Spread garlic butter onto cut sides of baguettes. Place cut sides up on a second baking sheet; evenly sprinkle with Italian cheese. • When veggies and sausage have a few minutes left, place sheet with garlic bread on top rack. Toast until cheese has melted, 3-4 minutes. (For 4, transfer sheet on top rack to bottom rack; toast bread on top rack. If needed, toast after sausage and veggies are done.) • While garlic bread toasts, in a separate small bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise, and a pinch of remaining garlic powder to taste. Season with salt and pepper.
• Transfer sausage to a cutting board; slice on a diagonal into ½-inch-thick pieces. • Divide cheesy garlic bread between plates and top with sausage and roasted veggies. Serve with sauce.

Reviews from our home cooks
We love this. The sausage is delicious, but we've decided moving forward to eat the sausage, pepper & onion separate, or over pasta. Then serve the cheesy bread as a side.
Easy to throw in the oven and the garlic bread was delish! Would also make a good sandwich if you just didn't cut the bread all the way through! The sauce was amazing!
I enjoyed these; I did not prepare the sauce. Really enjoyed the garlic bread base. I did end up with way more green peppers and onions than could fit on the bread.
Flavor was awesome! Great recipe...the only reason I gave it 4 star was because the casing on the sausage is practically unchewable. I had to cut it open and pull the meat out of it in order to eat it.
The garlic bread is great. The mayo on its own tastes great. When I added everything together it became too heavy of a meal. The sausage is good, just very greasy when cooked. Also, at least one of the peppers had gone bad so it needed to be thrown out.
Loved it! Very good flavor. We ate them as a regular sandwich not open faced. Would most definitely purchase again
The bread was soft and we loved the garlic spread. The sausage was fresh and tender
Loved the sausage and bell peppers! And who doesn't love garlic bread? Would definitely get this one again!
Grilled the sausages and then did the recipe as follows. Make sure to season the rolls and bake them, just as the recipe calls for.
Personally, after I brown the sausage, I cut it length wise to brown the inside. I like it a little crunchy. My question was why there were 3 sausages not 4? The bread was too big for not having the extra meat. The whole recipe was very good!
