Family-Pleasing Pizza

From Taste of Home's Simple & Delicious



Ingredients:
1/2 pound bulk pork sausage
1 tube (13.8 ounces) refrigerated pizza crust
2 teaspoons butter, melted
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
2 medium Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

Directions:
In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain and set aside.

Meanwhile, press pizza dough into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Brush with butter; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Layer with 1 cup mozzarella, sausage and tomatoes. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella and Italian seasoning.

Bake at 400° for 20-25 minutes or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted. Yield: 6 servings.

Comments:
Yum, pizza. I left off the tomatoes since Adam's not a fan. I also doubled the sausage (kind of by mistake.) Oops. It was very good. I like the idea of cooking it in a 13x9 pan rather than a pizza pan. This allows a thicker crust to form and I definitely am not of the thin crust party. I have a feeling I'll make this one again - perhaps with different toppings.
