"Pizza “Chili”

Instructions
Step
1
In a medium sized pot, heat canola oil, and cook the Italian sausage until browned.
Step
2
Place the cooked sausage in a bowl and set aside.
Step
3
Add the onion and garlic to the same pan, and cook until the onions are translucent.
Step
4
Add the mushrooms and bell peppers, and cook until tender.
Step
5
Deglaze the pan with the vegetable stock and add the sausage back into the pot.
Step
6
Add the tomato paste, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, and seasonings, and bring to a boil.
Step
7
Reduce the heat to a simmer, and let the sauce reduce for approximately 30 minutes, or until it has reached a thick chili-like consistency.
Step
8
To assemble, cut a horizontal line, from top to bottom, down the center of each individual bag of Chili Cheese FRITOS®. Make perpendicular slits to the initial cut, to create a flap that can be pulled back to reveal the FRITOS® chips. Pour enough of the Pizza Sauce to coat all of the FRITOS®, and then garnish with diced mushrooms, pepperoni, bell peppers, and sliced olives. Finish with a sprinkle of the oregano, mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. An additional sprinkle of red pepper flake may be added to create a spicier Pizza Supreme Frito Pie.
