Ingredients:
1 lb. bulk Italian sausage
1/4 c. each chopped onion, sweet red pepper and green pepper
2 pkgs. (6 1/2 oz. each) pizza crust mix
1 c. (4 oz.) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/2 c. chopped pepperoni
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 Tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp. dried oregano
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Directions:
In a large skillet, cook the sausage, onion and peppers over medium heat until the meat is no longer pink; drain.  Combine crust mixes; prepare according to package directions.  With greased fingers, press onto the bottom of a greased 15x10 baking pan.

Combine the sausage mixture, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni and egg; spread over dough to within 1/2 inch of the edges.  Sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese, oregano and garlic powder.

Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a long side; pinch seams to seal.  Arrange seam side down on pan and shape into a crescent.  Bake at 400 degrees or until golden brown.
