French Bread Pepperoni Pizza



My husband loves pizza.  I think he might actually turn into a piece of pepperoni soon.  He's also a very picky eater, so I've tried to come up with "healthier" alternatives to ordering pizza.  This recipe is so fast and easy, it's a definite go-to meal for any busy family!





Ingredients:

  • 1 loaf French bread (I used a garlic Parmesan baguette from Trader Joe's)
  • 1 jar of sauce (you can use marinara, pizza, or even spaghetti sauce.  Whatever the fam prefers)
  • 1/2 package shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 20-30 slices of pepperoni, or other toppings


Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Heat sauce in medium sauce pan on stove.
  3. Cover large baking sheet with foil.  Spray lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
  4. Cut loaf in half, then cut each half length-wise.  Lay quarters on baking sheet.  Inside of bread facing upward.
  5. When sauce is warm, spoon just enough to cover each quarter loaf lightly.  Pour the rest into dipping bowls.
  6. Add mozzarella, pepperoni, and/or toppings of your choosing.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted and toppings are cooked.
  8. Serve with remaining sauce and dunk away!


That's it!  So easy.  So fast.  So delicious!
