This was so good and easy to make. I added garlic, oregano and basil in the meat mixture and then put some oregano and paresan on the top of the cheese

I made this tonight and it was really good. I doctored it up a bit with some pepporoni and a handful of bacon pieces for more of a meat lovers pizza. I also added some pizza seasoning. I will make this again, very easy!

Easy to make, I'd use the entire lb. of Italian sausage next time. I added garlic and basil for extra favor, and topped with a little parmesan cheese.

Very easy to prepare and delicious. I used hot Italian sausage and sprinkled in some oregano too. I only baked it about 30 minutes and it was just right.
