  • Assemble the Pizza: Spread the Jalapeño Cream Cheese Spread evenly over the cooked pizza crust. Sprinkle the cooked sausage evenly over the cream cheese layer. Sprinkle the Monterey Jack Cheese over the sausage.
  • Create the Mexican Flag Design: (or just mix the vegetables) For the green section: Place the diced green bell pepper on the left third of the pizza, then top with chopped cilantro. For the white section: Leave the middle third of the pizza with just the Monterey Jack Cheese. For the red section: Place the diced red bell pepper and diced tomatoes on the right third of the pizza.
  • Bake the Pizza: Place the pizza back into the oven. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Remove from the oven.
