Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb bulk Italian pork sausage
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 can (8 oz) pizza sauce
1 can (13.8 oz) Pillsbury® refrigerated classic pizza crust
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (6 oz)
2 medium plum (Roma) tomatoes, chopped
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives, if desired
2 tablespoons chopped green onions (2 medium)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 9-inch square pan with cooking spray. Heat 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook sausage and bell pepper in skillet 7 to 9 minutes, stirring frequently, until sausage is no longer pink. Stir in mushrooms and pizza sauce. Keep warm over low heat.
