Ingredients
1 Cup
Black Diamond® Old White Cheddar Shredded Cheese
2
Italian sausages, casings removed
1/4 cup (60 mL)
prepared basil pesto

Preparation
- Preheat one side of grill to medium-high heat, leaving remaining side on low heat; grease grate well.

Tips
- Seed jalapeño peppers before slicing to reduce heat if desired.
