Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F and spread marinara sauce in a 9-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Slice each sausage link lengthwise, leaving one edge intact so it opens like a book.
Step 3
Break string cheese sticks into pieces and stuff one into each opened sausage.
Step 4
Lay stuffed sausages seam-side up in the marinara and bake for 15 minutes.
Step 5
Serve hot straight from the dish—cheese should be melted and sauce bubbling.
