National Sausage Pizza Day | Spicy Multi-Sausage Pizza

If you look back at the pizza recipes ^[4] I’ve made, you’ll see a commonality: spicy! My husband and I love the spice and honestly, we have to use the multitudes of peppers that keep cropping up in our garden. There’s so many! My husband, the green thumb.

We have many thai chilies on this pizza, I must say. Sometimes we put so many peppers, our noses get watery and we look (and sniffle) like we’ve been crying. What can we say: we are very serious about our food, it overjoys us so much, we get teary eyed.

Generally, when it comes to pizza, we like to use up whatever we have in the house. Sometimes it’s a hodgepodge of food things that just end up working, thankfully. This time around we used multiple kinds of pork. We have some breakfast sausage, some ham pieces, chopped salami, and even some kielbasa pieces.

A conglomeration of awesome, just baked on some pizza crust. It was a wonderful dinner night for sure.
