Weeknight meal
I’m pretty sure that, just as I could eat tacos for any meal and everyday, my husband could eat pizza for any meal and everyday. So, you can imagine that we eat pizza pretty often around here.
We have our favorite Homemade Thin Crust Pizza. But, it does take a while to make. So, if I want something quick, we’ll do this French Bread Pizza. It’s quick and easy, and gives you everything you want from pizza.
I also like that we can customize our French Bread Pizza – Dan’s with pepperoni, and mine with veggies of some sort. We usually eat 1/4 of the loaf of French bread for dinner or lunch. Now, if you have more people or bigger eaters, feel to double this and get 4 pizzas. Just rotate the pizzas in the oven halfway through cooking if you have all 4 halves in there at once.
**Store-bought Italian Herbs will work just fine, but I like to make my own Italian Herb blend. It’s easy and I just fill a jar to last us a nice long time.
