Ingredients

 Olive oil2 Teaspoon
 Onions3 , thinly sliced
 Sugar1 Tablespoon
 Dried oregano1 Teaspoon
 Salt1/4 Teaspoon
 1 red bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
 1/4 pound sweet Italian sausage
 1 (10-ounce) pre-baked whole-wheat pizza crust, such as Boboli
 1 cup fat-free ricotta cheese
 1/2 cup shredded fat-free mozzarella cheese
 Parmesan cheese2 Tablespoon, grated
 Black olives2 Tablespoon, thinly sliced

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 450°F. Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray.
2. Heat the oil in a medium non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onions, sugar, oregano, and salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions soften, about 3 minutes. Add the bell pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden, about 8-9 minutes.
3. Place the sausage in a small nonstick skillet and add 1/2 inch water.
Place over medium-high heat; cook, turning the sausage occasionally, until the water evaporates. Continue cooking until the sausage is browned, about 3 minutes longer; transfer to a cutting board and cut the sausage into thin slices.
4. Place the pizza crust on the baking sheet. Spread with the ricotta cheese, leaving a Winch border around the edge. Top with the onion mixture, mozzarella cheese, sausage, and Parmesan cheese. Bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly, about 10-12 minutes. Sprinkle with the olives and cut into 6 wedges.
