Sausage, Pepper, and Onion Pizza

This delicous recipe was our Monday night dinner. Thanks to Justin he got this cooked for us! So all the credit goes to him! They turned out great! I brought my left overs for lunch and I can not wait to eat it! He said it was very easy and did not take him long at all . Serve with a small mixed green salad. Enjoy!


Makes 4 servings (1 piece each)

Ingredients
Cooking spray
1 1/2 cups vertically sliced onion
1 cup green bell pepper strips
2 (4-ounce) links turkey Italian sausage, I only had pork Italian sausage
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (8-ounce) loaf French bread, cut in half horizontally
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions
Preheat oven to 450°.

Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion and green bell pepper strips, and sauté 6 minutes or until tender.

Remove casings from sausage. Add sausage to pan, and cook 5 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring to crumble. Add crushed red pepper and diced tomatoes, and cook 5 minutes or until mixture thickens.

Spread sausage mixture evenly over cut sides of bread, and sprinkle evenly with cheese. Place bread halves on a baking sheet. Bake at 450° for 5 minutes or until cheese melts. Cut each pizza in half.
