Easy Bubble Up Pizza

So, first let me say, I originally had no intentions of posting this recipe. Mainly because I thought most folks had heard of it or were already making it. 

Ingredients:

• 1 pound Italian sausage*
• 1 (15 oz.) jar pizza sauce
• 1 tube (12 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury Grands Jr. Biscuits
• 2 cups mozzarella cheese
• pepperoni slices

*So, let’s take a minute to talk about a shortcut. If you don’t have time to (or just don’t want to) cook Italian sausage for this, then there is now this product that has recently shown up in the grocery stores. It is pre-cooked sausage crumbles by Jimmy Dean. I am really enjoying these. They are great as pizza toppings, in omelets and quiches. It has lots of uses and it really saves a step in cooking! You will find it in the refrigerated section of your grocery store near the other sausage products. I would use about half this bag for this recipe.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375F degrees. Spray a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. If you are not using the pre-cooked sausage, you’re going to need to brown and crumble the Italian sausage and drain any excess grease.

Cut each biscuit into eighths. Most recipes for this call for cutting these into quarters and we just find that size to be too big so we like them a bit more bite-sized. Note: This is also a good teaching lesson for the kiddos. A fun way to introduce fractions.

In a bowl, combine pizza sauce with cut-up biscuits and cooked sausage. Stir to combine.

Spread this mixture evenly into prepared baking dish.

Then top with shredded cheese and sliced pepperoni. Little hands love to help with this job!

I like to sprinkle the top with some dried parsley. It doesn’t affect the flavor at all but it’s something I do because I think it makes it look pretty. But if you don’t already have some in your pantry, then don’t go out and buy it just for this.

Bubble Up Pizza

Bake uncovered for about 25-30 minutes until biscuits are cooked through. It is closer to the thirty minute mark in my oven.

Then serve.

This is great served with a salad.

And dig in! See? There are biscuits underneath all that cheese!

Note: Get creative with this! Add in any toppings that your family enjoys! Green peppers, onions and mushrooms are all great add-ins. If you don’t like the sausage, no problem, just leave it out of the recipe. And if your family loves a lot of sauce, you can add in another jar to this. This is so easy to really make the way your family will enjoy!

Enjoy!
