1 lb. loaf frozen white bread dough
1/2 lb. sweet Italian sausages, crumbled
1 sm. onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1/2 tsp. basil
1/2 tsp. oregano
Crushed red pepper to taste
1/2 c. cottage cheese
1/2 c. shredded Mozzarella cheese
2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 egg white, slightly beaten
1 egg yolk beaten with 1 tbsp. milk

Loosely wrap frozen loaf with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight to thaw. Let stand 1-2 hours to soften. In a medium skillet saute sausage until lightly brown; add onion and garlic; saute until onion is tender. Stir in tomato sauce, basil, oregano and red pepper. Simmer uncovered 5 minutes, remove from heat and cool. Stir in cheeses and whole egg, mix well.

Punch down dough if it has started to rise, divide in 8 equal parts. Form each into a flattened ball. On a lightly floured surface roll out each into a 6 inch circle. Place 1/3 cup filling on half of each round. Brush edges with egg white; fold other half over filling and pinch edges together. Place on greased baking sheets; press edges with a floured fork to seal. Brush lightly with egg yolk mixture, prick tops with forks. Bake in a preheated 425 degree oven for 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve warm. Serves 4.
