  1       t            Fresh rosemary leaves -OR-
    1/2   ts           -Dried rosemary leaves
  4                    Feet sausage casing

 ROUGHLY CHOP VEGETABLES into 1/4-inch pieces and set aside on a plate. Heat
 the oil in a large skillet over medium heat, add the onion and cook,
 stirring, for 5 minutes. Decrease heat to low, add the vegetables and cook
 for 10 minutes. Remove vegetables from heat and scrape the mixture into a
 food processor. Add the egg whites and bread crumbs and puree until smooth.
 Stuff the mixture into sausage casings or form 2 long sausages in plastic
 wrap. Poach the sausages in gently simmering water for 7 minutes, drain and
 let cool. If you have used plastic wrap to form the sausages, remove it
 when sausages are cool. Cut sausages into 6-inch lengths. To serve, grill
 the sausages or place under a preheated broiler. Since the sausages are
 already cooked, we want only to reheat them and crisp their skins.
