Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 lb lean ground beef or turkey
  • 10 oz sweet or italian sausage, turkey works as well
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • 1 tsp salt, divided
  • 3/4 cup red wine
  • 1/4 cup tomato paste
  • 1 1/4 cup water
  • 2 tsp italian seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

Filling

  • 1 1/2 cup whole milk ricotta
  • 1 cup mozzarella
  • 1 oz parm
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly spray a non-stick sheet pan with cooking spray.
  • Heat a large skillet with high sides to a medium heat. Drizzle with olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the ground beef, Italian sausage, onion and garlic. Use a wooden spoon to break up the meat. Let the meat cook without disturbing for 3-4 minutes so it starts to brown on the bottom. Use the wooden spoon to continue to break up the meat. Add the teaspoon of salt and tomato paste. Cook for 1 minute. Add the red wine. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer until reduced by half. Add the tomato sauce, water, Italian seasoning, garlic powder and onion powder. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  • While the sauce/filling simmers, make the spread. Add the ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan, salt and garlic powder to a medium bowl. Mix to combine.
  • Line the hoagies cut side up on the prepared baking sheet. Pop in the oven for 5 minutes to toast. Spread 1/6 of the spread on each cut side of the hoagie. Spoon the meat filling on one side of the hoagie. Pop the pan back in the oven and baked until the cheese spread is hot and gooey.
  • Fold the hoagies in half, grab a napkin and enjoy!
