How to make Festive Florentine Sausage Stacks:
1. Brush Premio Sausage Patties, mushroom caps and polenta slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place patties, caps and slices on baking sheet 8-inches from heat source and broil for 10-12 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove baking sheet from oven, leaving broiler on.
2. Make 4 stacks, starting with a mushroom cap; top with polenta slice, followed by a sausage patty, onion slice, pepper half and slice of mozzarella cheese. Broil to melt the cheese and heat through, about 1-2 minutes.
3. Combine the remaining olive oil, vinegar, pepper, salt, and zest. Place each stack on a plate, drizzle with the vinaigrette, garnish and serve.
