FRENCH BREAD PIZZA

I like making these quick French bread pizzas as they are quick to make especially during my lunch break.  They can be topped with whatever vegetables and cheese you have in your fridge. You can also adapt the toppings to suit each person you are cooking for.

 

Ingredients:

  • Unsliced baguettes or French bread
  • butter
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • one red pepper
  • 2 tbls sweetcorn
  • one onion
  • 2 green chilies
  • i cup grated cheese (I used cheddar cheese)
  • some oregano
  • a small mixture of salt, pepper, coriander and cumin powder mixed to your taste
  • 2 tablespoons Passata sauce (or any tomato sauce)

Method:

1.   Slice the bread and put it under the grill to brown on one side.
2.   Cut the onions, green chilies and pepper (you can use other toppings too).
3.   Add the spice mixture and olive oil to the sliced vegetables and sweetcorn.
4.   Remove the bread from the grill and butter the uncooked side.
5.  Top it with the sliced vegetables covered in olive oil.
6.  Pop this under the grill for a minute.
7.  Spread the cheese on top of the vegetables.
8.  Cook FRENCH BREAD PIZZA under the grill until the cheese starts to melt.
9  Sprinkle with Oregano and serve on its own or with baked potatoes

If you find that you don’t have enough time to make a base:

  1. Use a french bread as a base.  Checkout my French Bread recipe here
