Ingredients
  

  • French Bread Loaves (1 loaf generally makes 4 pizzas)
  • Olive oil
  • 1 jar of pizza sauce (or any of the sauce ideas listed below)
  • Plenty of shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Any toppings you want (see below for different options)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425.
  • Cut a French loaf in half both ways so you have four pieces. Brush both sides of all of the pieces of bread with olive oil – place on a baking sheet and bake on the middle rack for 3-4 minutes or until they start to get golden brown, cut side up.
  • Remove bread from oven, add desired sauce, cheese and toppings, (I always sprinkle a little extra bit of cheese over the toppings too to help them stick to the pizza), then bake another 5-7 minutes until nice and melty and serve immediately!
