  • Cook sausage in a large fry pan (skillet) over medium-high heat until almost cooked through, about 6 minutes, breaking it up into small pieces as it cooks.

4. Sauté Vegetables:

  • Add the mushrooms, bell pepper, and onion to the skillet and cook until softened.
  • Add half the pepperoni and cook for 1 – 2 minutes.
  • Drain any excess grease from the pan.
