Sausage mushroom pizza
This is my version of an antidote to a weekend OT shift that left me cranky. It didn't entirely cure the crankiness, but it did cure the hunger factor.
Pizza with sausage, shiitakes and fire-roasted tomato sauce
Ingredients:
1 pizza crust dough (or I suppose you could use a Boboli in a pinch if you don't have packets of pizza crust dough lurking in your freezer courtesy of your sourdough starter)
1/2 pound sausage, sliced 3/8-inch thick
1 package sliced shiitake mushrooms
1 15-ounce can fire-roasted tomatoes
2 garlic cloves
shredded pizza cheese
Method:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Sprinkle pizza baking stone with cornmeal. Shape dough into rough rectangle about a 1/4-inch thick.
Brown sausage in large skillet. Remove from pan. Add a drizzle of olive oil and saute mushrooms. Remove from pan. Add garlic to pan and cook about one minute. Add tomatoes and cook until liquid has nearly evaporated. If your sausage isn't salty, you might want to salt the sauce, but I found cooking the sauce in the same pot made it pick up the flavors so it wasn't necessary.
Spread tomato-garlic sauce over crust. Top with sausages, then mushrooms, and as much shredded pizza cheese as suits your fancy. Bake about 15 minutes.
