3. Place crust into ungreased 10-inch spring form pan pushing crust up along sides.
4. Sauté sausage and mushrooms. Remove excess drippings with a paper towel.
5. Layer crust with 1 cup of mozzarella cheese, sausage, mushrooms, pepperoni, peppers and remaining cheese.
6. Top with second crust and pinch edges to seal.
7. Cut several 1/2-inch slits on crust to vent.
8. Bake pizza for 30 minutes. Top with sauce and bake an additional 15-20 minutes.
