Sausage Bread

Buy a pack of pre-made loaves of bread (Bridgeford makes a pack of three you can find in the freezer section). Thaw it overnight in the fridge. Once thawed, set the loaves you are going to use out under a damp towel to rise for a couple of hours. Cook 1-1.5 pounds of sausage (Jimmy Dean sell them in tubes - spicy seems to taste best). Drain and cool the sausage when done. As the sausage cooks start working on the dough. You need to get it pretty flat and into a 18x12 rectangle. Put a layer of mozzarella cheese on the dough then sausage, then more cheese (about 1.5 cups of cheese or so - OK, maybe 2). Then roll it up like a jelly roll. Pinch it shut. Beat one egg with a tablespoon of water and brush it on the bread. Bake for 40-45 minutes at 350 on a greased baking sheet.
