Ingredients

  • 1 Large French Bread Loaf
  • 3 Tbsp Salted Butter
  • 1/2 Tsp Roasted Garlic Powder (may substitute with garlic powder)
  • 1/2 Tsp Pizza Seasoning (optional)
  • 1/2 Tsp Dried Parsley
  • 1 14.5 Oz Canned Pizza Sauce
  • 1 Lb Italian Sausage (hot or sweet)
  • 2 Small Bell Peppers, diced
  • 1 Sweet Yellow Onion, sliced
  • 1 8 Oz Block of Mozzarella, shredded
  • Pepperoni Slices

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and coat lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Cut the french bread loaf down the middle lengthwise. If the bread is extra thick, you may want to cut a section out of the middle (see pic above if needed). Then cut the bread into about 6” sections (I was able to get 5 pieces out of each side).
  • In a small, microwaveable bowl, melt the butter. Add the roasted garlic powder, pizza seasoning, dried parsley, and stir.
    Lightly brush the bread pieces with the seasoned butter.
  • Place the bread pieces onto the baking sheet and cook in the oven for 5-7 minutes until the bread is slightly toasted and golden. Set the bread aside while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
  • In a large, nonstick skillet, cook the Italian sausage over high heat, breaking it up as it cooks. Cook until no longer pink, and slightly crisp.
    Using a slotted spoon, remove the sausage to a bowl.
  • Now add the onion and bell peppers to the skillet, cooking the veggies in the sausage grease. Cook until the veggies are soft and slightly charred, about 5 minutes.
  • And now it’s time for assembly.
    Spread about 2 tbsp of pizza sauce onto each piece of bread. Then top each piece of bread with the peppers, onions, and sausage crumbles.
  • Finally, top the pizzas with the shredded mozzarella and slices of pepperoni.
  • Bake the pizzas in the oven for 10-15 minutes until the cheese is melted, the pepperoni is crisp, and the pizzas are toasty and golden.
    Enjoy!
