Sausage Pizza

Making homemade pizza is much more fun than ordering out! And you can make it exactly how you like it-lots of cheese, little sauce for myself! I haven't yet ventured to making my own pizza dough, but the refrigerated stuff still comes out pretty good!

Italian sausage has such great flavor that it's all I use whenever I make pasta instead of ground beef. Having it on pizza is one of my favorite toppings! This pizza has all my favorite toppings-mushrooms and black olives-as well!
