The combination of crumbled spicy Italian sausage, charred baby broccoli, hot red chili peppers and melted cheese atop a tender pizza crust is the perfect mix of flavors. This would also be a nice filling for homemade calzones or small pizzas passed as a unique appetizer as well. (I added in red onions for a bit of extra color and flavor and used ricotta cheese and fresh mozzarella for my cheesy additions.)  Making homemade pizzas is quite rewarding, both for the chef and to the lucky dinner guests.
