To prepare crust, place warm water in small bowl. Sprinkle yeast and sugar on top; 
stir to combine. Let stand 10 minutes or until bubbly.

Remove dough to lightly floured work surface. Knead 5 minutes or until dough is 
smooth and elastic.
Place dough in medium bowl sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Turn dough in bowl 
so top is coated with cooking spray; cover with towel. Let rise in warm place 45 
minutes or until doubled in bulk. 
Punch down dough; place on lightly floured surface and knead 2 minutes more. Cover 
with towel and let rise 20 minutes more.
Roll out to 1/4 inch thickness and cut into 32 circles with 2-inch cookie or biscuit 
cutter. 
Place on baking sheet sprayed with cooking spray. (Combine scraps of dough and roll 
out again to obtain 32 circles, if necessary.

Pizza Sauce
Heat oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute, 
being careful not to brown garlic. Add tomato sauce, basil and oregano; simmer 20 
minutes.

Place about 1/2 tsp sauce on each dough round. Spread sauce gently, leaving a small 
border of crust.
Preheat oven to 400º.
Combine bell pepper and onion in small bowl. Evenly sprinkle on top of sauce. Place 
sausage on half the pizzas and 1 or 2 mushroom slices on each of remaining pizzas. 
Evenly sprinkle cheeses on pizzas. Bake 10 minutes or until cheese melts. 
Serve immediately.
