We loved this recipe for dinner tonight. I used Emeril's roasted garlic pasta sauce and 2 1/4 oz of kalamata olives. This recipe is easily veganized by replacing the Italian sausage with Field Roast brand vegan Italian sausages (by far the best) and Vegan Gourmet mozzarella cheese alternative. Made for the Vegan challenge in the Greek ZWT9 forum.

I made with my own spaghetti sauce and we loved it! This was quick to make and everyone ate like there was no tomorrow! This will be repeated. Thanks for sharing!
