Ingredients

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• ½ (14 ounce) can pizza sauce
• 1 (2 ounce) package sliced pepperoni
• 2 (12 ounce) packages bulk Italian sausage

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Cover a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Step 2

Form Italian sausage into 6 patties. Space patties evenly across the baking sheet. Season with basil, oregano, and parsley.

Step 3

Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Flip patties over and continue baking for 5 minutes.

Step 4

Sprinkle Parmesan and mozzarella cheeses over patties. Cover with a layer of pepperoni slices. Bake until cheese melts, about 4 minutes more.

Step 5

Toast buns in the oven until nearly as crunchy pizza crust. Spread 1/2 tablespoon pizza sauce onto both halves of each bun. Place each patty on a bun and top with 1 slice of bell pepper and 1/2 tablespoon olives.
