Directions: |
Directions:While dough is rising, cook sausage in a skillet until well browned. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut off portion of the dough, roll out into a rectangle measuring 14 x 10 inches. Gently ease dough into a greased 8 1/2 inch loaf pan. Trim dough extending over the edge to 1/2 inch.
Layer some cheese in the bottom of the pan. Top with two layers of sausage slices, cut sides up. Spoon tomato sauce over sausage and sprinkle with oregano. Lay whole pimiento over broccoli mixture and cover with remaining cheese. Arrange pepperoni slices over cheese and top with three rows of olives, cut sides down. Roll out the remailing dough, place on the top and crimp the edges. The recipe does not say how long to bake it, but until the dough is golden brown ~ I'm guessing around 30 minutes. |

Notes: We always made this recipe in a 9x13 and doubled the ingredients. Also used black olives and never used the pimientos! Enjoy!
