Let’s file this recipe under “so simple my kids could make it.” One of said kids attempted here to take an action shot and accidentally lopped off my head. But I’m feeling much better, thanks for asking.
I remember having this version of pizza growing up. Today, it’s a nice way to reconnect with my childhood without spending all night in the kitchen. When I’m too tired to make anything else, a quick trip to the store for some French bread makes this a quick meal.
It’s easy, yes, but once again you have to pay attention to the process to have a good result. So read carrrrefulllly……
French Bread Pizza
makes a decent amount for 3 kids, one very hungry adult and one not-so-hungry adult (you may want to double for a larger crowd)
- one loaf french bread
- 1 jar pizza sauce
- 8 ounces mozzarella
- some butter
- whatever toppings you like (I used 4 slices of this here ham)
Step 1: slice open french bread and lightly butter. Throw in a preheated 375 degree F oven for about 3-5 minutes for a light crisp. **The magic is in this step.**
Step 2: spread a light layer of pizza sauce. I used about 1/2 of a 12 ounce jar. Use more if you like it saucy. Read that one, “saw-say” for added dramatic flair. 
Step 3: sprinkle cheese and any toppings.
Put back in 375 degree F oven and bake for another 8 minutes.
You know you want to try some.
Happy eating, you saw-say person you!
