Clik here to view.After last week’s unofficial sweets week, I thought I should probably post some savory recipes. Yes, that’s right we do eat more than cookies around here. Yes, we eat a lot of cookies too, but also yummy stuff like this sausage bread. Our Wednesday nights have been consumed by swimming lessons the last couple months, and this means I need a quick supper. This fit the bill, plus it was delicious. The ricotta cheese gave a creaminess, the italian sausage made it very flavorful and anything with pizza in the title my kids are sure to eat!
