Directions
Remove sausage from casing and brown well.
Drain fat - WELL - and return to pan.
Add green peppers and onions and cook for a few minutes until almost soft.
Roll pizza dough to large rectangle.
Place on parchment lined baking tray.
Around the edges of dough with scissors cut about 1½ inch strips towards the center.
Add sausage mixture in the middle of the dough - sprinkle with ¾ cups of the cheese.
"Braid" the dough strips together to "close" it up. (You will have a few gaps.)
Brush the dough with the beaten egg.
Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top with a sprinkle of Italian Seasoning if desired.
Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes at 450 F.
