CHEESY SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM PIZZA

"This pizza practically makes itself when you cook and crumble your favorite Italian sausage ahead of time and store in the frig. The rest of the ingredients come straight from the cupboard."

1 (10 oz.) prepared thin pizza crust (about 12 inches)
1/2 cup pizza sauce
2 cups (8 oz.) shredded provolone cheese
8 oz. bulk Italian sausage, cooked, crumbled and drained
1 (4 oz.) can mushroom pieces, drained

Heat oven to 450 degrees F.

Spread pizza crust evenly with sauce, one cup cheese, sausage, mushroom, and remaining cup of cheese.

Bake directly on oven rack for 10 minutes, or until crust is crisp and cheese is melted.

Serving Suggestions:
Serve wedges of pizza with apple wedges, sliced cucumbers, carrot and celery sticks.

Servings: 4-5
