Ingredients

  • 5 oz bag Vintage Italia Pasta Chips
  • ½ cup finely diced tomatoes
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ½ cup finely diced onion
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon roughly chopped or sliced black olives
  • 2 mild Italian sausage links
  • ¼ cup alfredo sauce, jarred
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella
  • 1 tablespoon sliced pepperoncini

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°.
  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes and the next 8 ingredients. Cover and refrigerate while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
  • Run a knife down the side of the sausage links and remove the casings. Over medium-high heat, thoroughly cook the sausage in a skillet, ensuring that it's no longer pink. Spoon cooked sausage on to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • In the middle of a foil lined baking sheet, line a single layer of Pasta Chips.
  • Drizzle half of the alfredo sauce on to the chips.
  • Sprinkle half of the sausage and half the mozzarella on to the chips.
  • Place another layer of chips on top of the sausage and mozzarella layer.
  • Drizzle the remaining alfredo sauce on to the chips, along with the remaining sausage and mozzarella.
  • Bake in the 350° oven for 10-15 minutes or until the cheese has melted and is starting to brown.
  • Remove from the oven and top with the tomatoes*, olives and pepperoncini.

Notes

You may not use all of the tomatoes. Just save them for some bruschetta or pasta!
