Italimelt

Dear sister and I are fans of Taco Bell's Meximelt. It is a warm tortilla filled with seasoned ground beef, cheese and pico de gallo. Delicious! Well ever since I found the recipe for Double Tomato Relish, I have been thinking about other ways to use it. I dubbed it "Italian salsa" so a Italian melt seemed logical. I would just modify the Meximelt to include more Italian ingredients. I used a small individual thin pizza crust for the tortilla. Italian sausage in place of seasoned ground beef. Mozzarella cheese and of course the "Italian salsa". Mom and dear sister said it reminded them of a calzone. It was sure easier than a calzone. If you can make a grill cheese or quesadilla, you have the skills to make this sandwich. This Italimelt is a delicious, hearty sandwich, perfect for a weeknight meal.
