Sausage and Pepper Pizza

Ingredients

• 4 ounces hot turkey Italian sausage
• Cooking spray
• 1 cup red bell pepper strips (about 1 medium)
• 1 cup yellow bell pepper strips (about 1 medium)
• 1 (16-ounce) cheese-flavored pizza crust (such as Boboli)
• 1 cup Basic Marinara
• 1 tablespoon no-salt-added tomato paste
• 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded provolone cheese
• 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Remove casings from sausage. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add sausage and bell peppers to pan; cook 6 minutes or until bell peppers are crisp-tender and sausage is browned, stirring frequently.
3. Place pizza crust on a large baking sheet. Combine Basic Marinara and tomato paste, stirring with a whisk; spread evenly over crust, leaving a 1-inch border. Sprinkle with cheeses and oregano; top evenly with sausage mixture. Bake at 450° for 15 minutes or until cheese melts and crust is lightly browned. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
