I'd probably it the sausages into little meatbally bits and then make a tomato based sauce (tinned tomatoes, onions, maybe the peppers etc) and serve on pasta with cheese on top.

Bread to mop up the sauce/fill up

Cook chopped onions in oil until softened. Add peppers and soften them too. Add sausages and brown them. Add kidney beans and tinned tomatoes. You could add other cans of beans or chickpeas if you need more food. Adjust seasonings/spices to taste. I like chilli and ground cumin but depends what is already in kidney beans.

I'm with starfish, that sounds lovely. What kind of bread do you have? Could you make garlic bread slices with it?
