Preheat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add Thin ‘n Trim’s low sodium Italian chicken sausage to pan. Saute until browned. Set aside.
In a bowl, add 2 tbsp vinegar to onions. Set aside.
Remove crust from oven. Baste again with oil. Cover with tomatoes, bell pepper, onions, and sprinkled fennel seeds. Add layer of sausage slices, feta, and olives. Sprinkle oregano, fennel seeds and red chili flakes. Garnish with spinach leaves, nuts and oil. Place pizza in oven for 20 min or until golden brown.
Spoon 3 tbsp tahini paste into a bowl. Stir in cold water, little by little. Once at desired consistency, add olive oil, pepper & salt to taste. Drizzle pizza slices with olive oil and serve the slices with creamy tahini for dipping.
