Sausage Pizza

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 15 min. YIELD: 8 slices.
Spicy sausage, onions, mushrooms and plenty of cheese make this pizza from our Test Kitchen a real keeper. It beats the delivery variety every time—and there’s no wait! Bake up two or more and keep one on hand for busy nights. TIP: Substitute less spicy sausage or chicken and a variety of veggies and cheese to suit your family’s taste.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed
  • 3/4 pound bulk hot Italian sausage
  • 1/2 cup sliced onion
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chopped green pepper
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

  • 1. Preheat oven to 400°; with greased fingers, pat dough onto an ungreased 12-in. pizza pan. Prick dough thoroughly with a fork. Bake at 400° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook the sausage, onion, mushrooms and green pepper over medium heat until sausage is no longer pink; drain.
  • 2. Spread pizza sauce over crust. Top with sausage mixture; sprinkle with cheese. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Or, wrap pizza and freeze for up to 2 months.
  • 3. To use frozen pizza: Unwrap and place on a pizza pan; thaw in the refrigerator. Bake at 400° for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
