20 20 40

Ingredients

1 package (16 ounces) hot roll mix
2 tablespoons garlic powder
2 tablespoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1-1/4 cups warm water (120° to 130°)
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 can (15 ounces) pizza sauce
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 pound Johnsonville® Ground Sausage, cooked and crumbled
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
1 package (8 ounces) sliced pepperoni
4 cups (28 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the contents of the roll mix and yeast packets with the garlic powder, oregano and Italian seasoning. Stir in water and oil until dough pulls away from sides of bowl.
Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Shape into a ball. Knead for 5 minutes or until smooth. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
Divide dough in half. With greased hands, press dough onto two greased 12-in. pizza pans. Prick dough thoroughly with a fork. Spread crusts with pizza sauce. Top with Parmesan cheese, sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese. Bake at 425° for 18-20 minutes or until cheese is melted. Yield: 2 pizzas (8-10 slices each).
