1/2 pound bulk Italian sausage
1/2 pound ground beef
3 1/3 cups original bisquick
3/4 cup cold water
3 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (12 ounces)
1 jar or can (14 to 15 ounces) pizza sauce
1 cup sliced mushrooms (3 ounces)

Heat oven to 450 F. Grease rectangular baking dish, 13x9x2 inches. Cook
sausage and ground beef in 10-inch skillet over medium heat, stirring

Place in center of baking dish; unfold. Press on bottom and up sides of
dish. Sprinkle with 1 cup of the cheese; top with 3/4 cup of the pizza
sauce, the meat mixture, mushrooms and bell pepper, pizza toppings and 1 1/2 cups of the cheese.

Roll remaining part dough into rectangle, 13x9 inches. Fold crosswise into
thirds. Place on cheese in center of baking dish; unfold. Press bottom and
top crust edges together to seal. Make small slits in top crust.
