ROLLED PIZZA (STROMBOLI ) FILLED WITH SAUSAGES AND PEPPERS

 Being that I make my own pizza dough, I make many varieties of pizza.

This particular pizza is filled with cooked sausages and peppers.  Another rolled pizza that we enjoy eating is filled with roasted peppers.

1 pound pizza dough (using my recipe or storebought)

1/2 pound of pork sausages

3 or 4 red bell peppers

1/4 cup of olive oil

Salt and black pepper

Heat oven at 400 degrees.  Place a skillet over medium heat.  Add 1 tablespoon of oil and add cut sausages.  Cook for 15 minutes then add sliced bell peppers.  Add salt and black pepper.  Sauté for 10 minutes or until the peppers are slightly wilted.  Do not overcook the sausages and peppers because they will still cook in the oven.  Remove the skillet and set aside.  Drain and discard any remaining oil from the skillet.  Remove the mixture from the pan and set aside.

Take a 14-inch round pizza pan.  Add a drop of oil and spread throughout the pan.  Spread the pizza dough over the pan to about 1/4-inch thick.  Add the sausage and peppers,

• Take one end of the circle and roll the dough up into a cylinder, gently folding in the ends.  Brush the dough with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper. 
•                               
•  Place the dough on pizza pan and bake for 25 minutes until the top is golden brown.

• • Allow the pizza to cool for 10 minutes.  Cut the pizza and serve.
