Garlic Bread Lasagna Sub is a delightful fusion of two beloved dishes: garlic bread and lasagna. This recipe transforms a loaf of Italian or French bread into a hearty sub, loaded with rich layers of sausage, cheese, and sauce, making it a perfect meal for any occasion.

Ingredients

🍞 1 large Italian or French bread loaf
🧈 1/2 cup vegetable oil spread (or butter)
🧄 1 tablespoon garlic powder
🌿 1 tablespoon parsley flakes
🥩 1 pound ground Italian sausage
🍅 2 cups tomato sauce
🧀 1 cup ricotta cheese
🥚 1 large egg
🍝 6 lasagna riccia noodles, cooked according to package instructions
🧀 2 cups Italian five cheese blend
🧀 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1- Prepare the Garlic Bread:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Slice the top off the bread loaf and hollow out a trench along the top, removing some of the bread from the center to create space for the filling.
Mix the vegetable oil spread (or butter) with garlic powder and parsley flakes.
Spread this mixture generously inside the trench and on the upper edges of the bread.

2- Toast the Garlic Bread:

Place the bread on a baking sheet and toast it in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Remove and set aside.

3- Prepare the Filling:

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground Italian sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
In a bowl, combine the ricotta cheese with the egg. Mix until smooth and well-combined.

4- Assemble the Lasagna Sub:

Spread a layer of tomato sauce inside the trench of the toasted bread.
Place a layer of cooked lasagna noodles over the sauce.
Spread a layer of the ricotta-egg mixture over the noodles.
Add a layer of cooked sausage.
Sprinkle a layer of Italian five cheese blend.
Repeat these layers until you reach the top of the bread, finishing with a layer of sauce and a generous topping of the Italian five cheese blend and Parmesan cheese.

5- Bake the Lasagna Sub:
