Directions
- Turn the Blackstone griddle to medium heat. Drizzle and spread cooking oil on the griddle.
- Drizzle cooking oil and garlic powder on the sausages. Put them on the griddle, flipping every few minutes and drizzling cooking oil to keep them from burning.

- Drizzle cooking oil on the griddle and add green bell pepper and onion. Season with Italian seasoning and stir while cooking.
- Pour a little water on the sausages and close the griddle hood or use a basting dome to steam up and help raise the sausage's inner temperature.
- Remove the Dutch oven and sausages from the griddle.
- Place sausages in the rolls. Add peppers, onions, and marinara sauce to the sausages. Can sprinkle with shredded mozzarella if desired.
- Put salad mix in a large bowl.
- Pour Italian dressing and sprinkle ground black pepper onto the salad.
- Cut the rolls as desired for croutons and put them on the hot griddle.
- Drizzle with cooking oil, sprinkle with Italian seasoning, and stir until golden brown.
- Add croutons on top of the salad and enjoy!
