A lasagna-inspired pizza with saucy noodles and sausage tossed in Don Pepino sauce, baked on a crispy crust and finished with ricotta.
Preheat the oven to 450°F.
Break the lasagna noodles into 2-inch pieces and boil until very al dente, about 8-9 minutes. Drain and toss with a little olive oil.
Brown the sausage in olive oil, then add the onion and garlic and cook until soft and fragrant.
Stir in the Don Pepino sauce and the noodles, tossing until well coated and warmed through.
Shape the pizza dough into a 9x13-inch rectangle on an oiled baking sheet, spread the saucy noodle mixture over it leaving the edges bare, then top with Parmesan and mozzarella.
Drizzle the exposed crust edges with olive oil and bake 12-15 minutes until golden brown all over.
Let rest 5 minutes, dollop with ricotta, garnish with parsley and basil, then slice and serve.
Tastes exactly like the sauce at the pizzeria I grew up going to in Bergen County. Didn't expect that from a can.
I stopped simmering anything years ago. Open, spread, bake. My kids can't tell the difference and neither can I.
We use it behind the counter at our shop. Consistent every batch, which matters more than people think.
