"So many nice paella-like recipes out there, but since I didn't find one listed for how we make it, ' thought I'd share. Besides the sausage and mussels, we often add any leftover meats we might have, like steak or chicken, chopped up. I don't like to waste food."

directions

In a large skillet cook sausage, onions, peppers and chopped garlic until cooked through, about 10 minutes.
Add crushed tomatoes, stock, cayenne, black pepper and pepper flakes .
Do not add the wine yet!
Cook over medium high heat to reduce liquids.
Toast unbuttered rolls or bread.
Once sauce is reduced, add wine and mussels, cover and cook until shells open, about 5 minutes.
Slice whole garlic clove in half and rub raw sides on your warm, toasted rolls.
Serve in a big wide bowl with bread for dipping. Also great over rice.
Although this should serve 4, my DH and I eat this all, EASILY!
