Preparation
-
1) Prepare the pizza dough. You can do this however you like. Search \"Pizza Dough Recipe\", buy frozen bread dough and thaw it, buy a premade pizza crust, etc. I had a Pillsbury mix for \"Hot Roll\" bread dough that I needed to use up, so that's how I made my dough. One way or another, grease up a pizza pan and roll out a layer of fresh dough. Set aside.
2) Mix together all the Pizza Sauce ingredients. Red wine is optional but tastes so much better than water! Set aside.
3) Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; coat bottom with 1 Tbsp olive oil. Remove casings from sausage, and cook 3 mins, stirring to crumble. Add onion and mushrooms, saute 4 minutes Add bell pepper, saute 2 minutes.
4) Assemble your pizza! Spread pizza sauce mixture on the dough, leaving a 1 inch margin for your crust. Layer on the sausage mixture. Sprinkle cheese generously over the top.
5) Bake at 415 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
