Ingredients
  • French Bread / Baguette

  • Shredded mozzarella cheese
  • Toppings:

  • Use the topping of your choice:
  • Cooked meat leftover chicken, bacon, ham or paneer, tofu etc
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 400 Degrees Fahrenheit/205 Degrees Celsius.
  2. Cut the bread in the center.
  3. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of pizza sauce, not too much and not too little.
  4. Add your topping. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  5. Top with cheese, place the bread on a baking sheet and bake it in the center of the oven for 7-10 minutes or till the cheese melts and bubbles. Broil it for an additional minute for the charred look.
Recipe Notes

You can freeze the extra pizza sauce if you don't plan to reuse. Pour it into ice trays. Once it freezes take that out and transfer into a freezer safe bag. Microwave cubes as needed.

Keep a close eye with your broil setting because the food can go from perfect to burnt in no time.
