1/4 pound bulk pork sausage
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough, thawed and halved
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 can (8 ounces) pizza sauce
8 slices pepperoni
1 can (4 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, drained
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano

Steps:

In a large skillet, cook the sausage, pepper and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Set aside.
Roll half of dough into a 12-in. circle. Transfer to a greased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Layer with half of the mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese and pizza sauce. Top with the sausage mixture, pepperoni, mushrooms and 1/8 teaspoon oregano.
Roll out remaining dough to fit top of pie. Place over filling; seal edges. Layer with remaining pizza sauce, cheeses and oregano.
Bake at 400° for 18-22 minutes or until golden brown.
Yield: 8 servings.
