Servings: 6 -8
Calories: 216kcal
Ingredients
- 1 recipe pizza dough* see notes
- 12 slices pepperoni
- 1/2 cup chopped sweet or hot Italian sausage
- 1/4 cup pizza sauce**
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- 1/2 cup shredded asiago
- 1/4 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
- Torn fresh basil leaves optional
Instructions
- *Ready-made pizza dough may be substituted (the stuff in the tube or what is often sold in supermarket bakeries)
- **Regular (not chunky) pasta sauce may be used but stir in an additional 1/2 tsp of oregano
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. You can use either a round pizza pan or a small baking sheet (one with sides). I usually use the rectangular baking sheet and line it with parchment.
- Roll or shape pizza dough into a 12-inch circle or 9 x 13 (approximate) rectangle. Place in pan and roll outside edges inward about 1/2 inch to form a rim.
- Spread pizza sauce over bottom of crust up to the rim. Evenly distribute pepperoni and chopped sausage.
- Top with cheeses and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serves 6-8 depending on how you cut and the size of the pan.
