Ingredients
Instructions
- Prepare the pizza according to the directions on the mix, but do not cook it yet. Cook the sausage and drain it.
- Layer all ingredients on the prepared pizza, starting with the sauce and toppings, and ending with the grated cheeses.
- Bake the pizza at 425°F for 20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
- Note: Oven temperatures may vary; adjust baking time as needed.
Tips & Substitutions
For an extra flavor boost, consider adding sliced olives or jalapeños as toppings. If you prefer a different cheese, feel free to substitute with Gouda or Provolone. To save time, use pre-cooked sausage or leftover chicken. Adjust the baking time if you're using a thicker crust or additional toppings to ensure even cooking.
Serving Suggestions
This Supreme Pizza pairs beautifully with a fresh garden salad or garlic bread for a complete meal. For a fun twist, serve with dipping sauces like ranch or marinara. Consider pairing with a light Italian red wine or a refreshing soda. This dish is perfect for game nights or casual gatherings.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices on a baking sheet in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the crust is crisp again. Avoid using the microwave as it can make the crust soggy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this pizza ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the pizza up to the baking stage and refrigerate it for a few hours. Just make sure to cover it tightly with plastic wrap. When ready to bake, remove it from the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before baking.
What can I substitute for the sausage?
If you're looking for a substitute for Italian sausage, you can use ground turkey or chicken sausage for a leaner option. Alternatively, try using crumbled tofu or a plant-based sausage for a vegetarian version. Season it well with Italian herbs to mimic the original flavor.
How can I make this pizza spicier?
To add some heat to your Supreme Pizza, consider using spicy pepperoni or adding crushed red pepper flakes on top before baking. You can also include sliced jalapeños or a drizzle of hot sauce right before serving for an extra kick.
