- 375 g Ontario Italian Sausage
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) cornmeal
- 1 prepared pizza dough (375 g)
- 2 tbsp (25 mL) olive oil
- 1/4 cup (50 mL) Plum Tomato Sauce (recipe attached) or tomato sauce

Cut sausage into 1/2-inch (1 cm) slices. In large skillet, over medium heat, cook sausage, stirring often, until no longer pink, about 8 minutes. Set aside to drain on paper towels.
Sprinkle 14-inch (35 cm) pizza pan with cornmeal. Roll out pizza dough as thinly as possible and press into pan. Brush dough lightly with half of the oil. Scatter 1/2 cup (125 mL) of the cheese over dough. Spread with tomato sauce, top with remaining cheese, tomato and sausage. Drizzle with remaining oil.
Bake in bottom third of 500°F (260°C) oven for 12 to 15 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Top with basil leaves, cut into wedges and serve immediately.
