Mmmmm. Mmmmm. Mmmmm. Sausage and peppers with onions. This is one of those classic Italian-American street food, lunch cart dishes. I used to order sausage, peppers, and onions at a hole-in-the-wall lunch counter in Burbank. You know the type of place—where the big loud guy behind the counter works fast and furious, takes your order (you better know what you want!) and barks back "Sausage, Peppers, and Onions!" to the guys on the line, and within minutes you have a huge roll in your hands, loaded with more sausage and peppers with onions than you think you can possibly eat. But eat you do, because that sausage and peppers with onions are so so good. And then you have a food coma for the rest of the afternoon, and you eat steamed broccoli for dinner because after that lunch, you just don't need much for dinner. Yum!
