Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 415°F (213°C).
- Prepare the Meats: Cook the Italian sausage and bacon in a skillet until they’re just cooked through. Remove the meats from the skillet and set them aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess fat.
- Soften the Vegetables: In the same skillet, using the residual fat from the meats, sauté the sliced onion and green bell pepper just until they start to soften. This should take about 3-5 minutes. You don’t want them fully cooked as they will continue to cook in the oven.
- Prepare the French Bread: Slice the loaf of French bread in half lengthwise. If desired, you can scoop out some of the bread from the center to create more space for your toppings.
- Apply the Sauce: Spread the pizza sauce evenly over the cut sides of the French bread. You can adjust the amount of sauce to your liking.
- Add the Toppings: Start with a layer of mozzarella cheese on the sauce. Then, evenly distribute the cooked Italian sausage, bacon, and pepperoni over the cheese. Add the softened onions and green bell peppers on top.
- More Cheese: Sprinkle another layer of mozzarella cheese over the toppings. This helps to bind all the ingredients together and adds extra cheesy goodness.
- Bake: Place the prepared French bread pizzas on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 10-13 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges of the bread are crispy.
- Serve: Allow the pizzas to cool for a couple of minutes before slicing them into manageable pieces. Serve hot with extra pizza sauce for dipping if desired.
– Bread Selection: Make sure to use a fresh loaf of French bread for the best results. The crust will provide a satisfying crunch that’s similar to traditional pizza crust.
– Customization: Feel free to add or substitute toppings based on your preferences or what you have on hand. This recipe is very versatile and can be adapted to suit any taste.
– Dipping Sauce: Extra pizza sauce makes a great dipping sauce. Warm it up and serve it on the side for an added flavor boost.
