INGREDIENTS
| Gardein® Sliced Italian. Saus’ge | 1/2 package; 9 oz each |
| Baguette | 1 |
| Hunt’s® Tomato Basil Pasta Sauce | 1/2 cup |
| Shredded plant-based mozzarella cheese, divided | 1 cup |
| Earth Balance® Original Buttery Spread, melted | 1 Tbsp |

Directions:
- Preheat oven to 375˚F. Cook Saus’ge according to package directions. Crumble cooked Saus’ge into small pieces.
- Cut slits in baguette 1-inch apart nearly to the bottom but do not cut through. Spoon about a teaspoon of sauce into each slit and divide Saus’ge evenly into each. Stuff about half of the cheese into the slits.
