This was a tasty 'homemade' pizza! I admit that when I went to use the italian sausage that I had, it was freezer burnt, so I just crisped my pepperoni up, before burying it between 2 layers of cheese! I'll certainly be making this again, and soon! Thanks for sharing, JRuiz.

I used hot Italian turkey sausage, Smart Balance Lite (in place of the margarine), part-skim mozzarella, and was heavy-handed with the garlic powder. I made 1/2 recipe for two people and served with a crispy greens and vegetable salad. I was very happy to have leftovers for lunch the next day. Spicy, cheesy, and super easy to make.
