“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it."
~ Waverly Root (1903-1982)

Recipe Ingredients:

1 thin-crust Italian bread shell, (11 1/2" dia)
1 cup Contadina Original Pizza Sauce
2/3 cup shredded part-skim milk (1/3 less fat)
mozzarella cheese
6 oz turkey sausage, crumbled, browned,

1/2 tsp crushed dried oregano
1/2 tsp crushed dried basil
Crushed red pepper flakes, (optional), to taste

 

Recipe Instructions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place the shell on an ungreased 12-inch nonstick pizza pan.

To assemble the pizza, spread the pizza sauce over the shell, leaving a 1-inch border around the rim. Sprinkle with half of the cheese.

Arrange the cooked sausage on top of the cheese, covering evenly. Top with onion and mushrooms slices. Sprinkle evenly with oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Top with remaining cheese.

Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, until the crust is crisp and the cheese is melted and browned. Cut into 6 wedges.

“Americans can eat garbage, provided you sprinkle it liberally with ketchup, mustard, chili sauce, tabasco sauce, cayenne pepper, or any other condiment which destroys the original flavor of the dish.”
