Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 can diced tomatoes well drained 14.5 oz can do not use petite dice tomatoes
  • 5 links uncooked turkey or pork Italian sausage 19.5 oz
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • salt and fresh-ground pepper to taste I didn’t use much salt
  • 12 oz fresh mushrooms washed and cut into thick slices I used brown Cremini mushrooms
  • 1 1/2 cups grated Mozzarella cheese
  • 15 slices pepperoni cut in half I used regular pepperoni but you can use turkey pepperoni if you prefer

Instructions

  1. Heat your oven to 400F 200C and prepare an 8 inch x 11 inch glass casserole dish by spraying it with non-stick spray or olive oil.
  2. Rinse the diced tomatoes under cold water in a colander and let them drain completely on paper towels.
  3. Warm 2 tsp olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat, remove sausage from casing, and cook it until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
  4. While sausage cooks, clean and slice mushrooms into thick pieces.
  5. Layer the browned sausage in the casserole dish, then add the drained tomatoes on top and season with oregano, salt, and pepper.
  6. Clean the pan if necessary, add the remaining 2 tsp olive oil and cook mushrooms over medium-high heat until their liquid evaporates and they brown slightly.
  7. Add the cooked mushrooms as the next layer over the sausage and tomato mixture.
  8. Arrange halved pepperoni slices evenly over the layer of shredded Mozzarella cheese on top of the casserole.
  9. Bake the dish about 25 minutes until the cheese is melted and beginning to brown. Serve hot.

Notes

  • I used my favorite turkey Italian sausage for this recipe
  • use pork sausage if you prefer
  • For crisp tops, broil 2–3 minutes at the end
