Preparation

  • 1
    Position oven rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 400°F.
  • 2

  • 3
    In a large skillet, heat Bertolli Extra Light in Taste Olive Oil and sauté sausage until browned. Remove from heat, thinly coin slice and set aside. (Always cook sausage to internal temperature of 160°F.)

    Add the rest of the Fontina and the diced tomatoes.
  • 8
    Bake for 5-8 minutes and remove from oven.

    Using the back of a spoon, lightly make 4 indentations in the center of the baguettes not too close to the crust, pushing some of the ingredients to the sides.
