--------  ------------  --------------------------------
     3/4  pound         Italian sausage -- hot or mild
     1/2  cup           dry red wine
     1/4  cup           grated romano cheese -- or parmesan
   2      teaspoons     dried parsley
     1/4  teaspoon      dried oregano
   1      pound         frozen bread dough -- thawed
   2      tablespoons   butter or margarine -- melted

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 375¡. Grease a large cookie sheet. Remove sausage meat from casings. Brown meat in a large skillet, breaking up into chunks. Drain off fat. Pour in wine; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Drain off any liquid. Stir in cheese, parsley and oregano; remove from heat. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a rectangle approximately 12" x 16". Brush with half of the melted butter. Sprinkle the sausage mixture evenly over the top of the dough, leaving a 1/2" border all around. Press the sausage lightly into the dough. Starting from a long end, roll up securely in a jelly-roll fashion. Pinch tightly along lengthwise seam to seal. Cut crosswise into 8 equal pieces. Pinch both ends of each roll tightly to form 8 rolls. Place the rolls onto the prepared cookie sheet. Brush with remaining melted butter. Bake for 20 - 25 minutes, or until browned.
