Preparation

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Place oven rack in low position. In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add sausage, and cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Using slotted spoon, transfer to small bowl.
  2. Add mushrooms and salt to drippings in skillet; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring frequently, until softened and browned. Stir in garlic; remove from heat.
  3. Unroll dough with oven-safe parchment paper onto ungreased large cookie sheet (dough bakes on paper). Spread tomato sauce evenly over dough.
  4. Top with mushroom mixture. Top with sausage, red onion and cheese. Bake 16 to 21 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Top with basil.
