Take 1 pound of Italian sausage and press it into a 15 inch pizza pan. Bake and drain off the grease. Top with an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce, sprinkle with some Italian seasoning. Then put on 2 cups of mozzarella cheese, cover with pepperoni. Bake again til hot and bubbly. Cut into 8 slices, 2 slices and a salad fill you up. Leftovers are great the next day. Hubby and I just love this pizza.

Sounds like it would be good tasting but bad for the arteries

Way too much cheese and fatty meat - YUCK!

dex and kal, how would this differ from a pepperoni pizza in your worlds?

barbara, thank you for sharing a low carb option for pizza!

I think it sounds awesome, thanks for the idea!

My pizza is long on veggies and short on meat and cheese.If I was going to make it lower carb then I would use a whole wheat thin crust.I know my way is probably not as decadent but we watch fat to keep DH cholesterol down so he doesn't need meds

Thanks for posting Barbara. I'm not a fan of Italian sausage, but I will try it with lean ground beef.

I saw another version that used ground beef as the crust. You could season it up before putting it in the pan.
