Ranch Pizza Pie

If you are craving a hearty, fluffy, meaty pizza then you MUST try this dish! My boys absolutely devoured huge slices of this pizza pie.

Ingredients:

1 package frozen puff pasty thawed

1/2 to 1 bell pepper diced

½ onion diced

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil divided

1 pound loose breakfast sausage

30 pepperoni slices

4 slices mozzarella cheese

Directions:

1. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to two large skillets. Cook sausage breaking up and peppers and onions in the two separate skillets.  Stir both often and cook until sausage is brown, and onions are caramelized.  Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.  Then remove both pans from heat.  Drain fluid from the sausage.  Allow to cool.
