Pizza Bake

Not another hot mess of cheese I promise! I found a recipe for a pizza bake online and made a few changes. This came out like deep dish pizza, which I love but only in Chicago. The best way to describe Chicago style pizza is it looks like a cheesecake at first. This was also awesome leftovers!

Pizza Bake
1 pound Italian sausage (I used half hot half mild)
1 jar spaghetti sauce (I used Hunt's because it is cheap and tasty)
1 small can slice olives
Mozzarella cheese, use as much or as little as you like
1 tube store bought pizza dough

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Brown the sausage in a skillet. Drain if needed(mine needed it) Add the spaghetti sauce and olive and heat on low until everything is heated through. Spray a glass baking dish with non stick spray or grease with butter. Roll the pizza dough out and smoosh into the baking dish, mine cover the bottom and about half way up the sides, I think this is best. bake the pizza dough, without any toppings, for 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from oven. Sprinkle cheese over dough. Add sausage mixture, spreading it out evenly. Top that with more cheese and bake for another 12 to 15 minutes or until the crust is brown enough for your taste. Let it cool a bit before you cut it so it doesn't run everywhere and enjoy!
