Pesto Sausage Pizza

This recipe comes via my sister in-law who made this pizza for her family and she said it was the best homemade pizza they have ever had! I haven't personally tried this one, but I do know my sis in-law is a great cook so I totally trust her opinion on this matter! Give it a try!

What she used:

1 loaf frozen bread dough

1/2lb. bulk Italian sausage

2c. sliced fresh mushrooms

8oz. cream cheese, softened

1/4c. prepared pesto

1c. roasted garlic Parmesan spaghetti sauce

1 can sliced ripe olives, drained

1/2c. orange pepper, diced

1 1/2c. (6oz.) shredded Monterey Jack cheese

In large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Form crust with dough on pizza pan. Build up edges slightly. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and pesto until blended. Spread over dough. Layer with spaghetti sauce, sausage, mushrooms, olives, peppers, and cheese. Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30.

From our table to yours, bon appetite!
