French Bread Pizza

---

1 loaf of French Bread
2 cups of shredded mozzarella
1 14oz jar of pizza sauce
1 package of Hormel Pepperoni
1lb of Italian Sausage
½ red onion, chopped finely
½ green bell pepper, chopped finely
2 tbs of butter
Freeze dried basil, to taste
Freeze dried parsley, to taste
Freeze dried oregano, to taste
1 tbs of garlic paste
Garlic Powder, to taste
Onion Powder, to taste
Italian Seasoning, to taste
Badia Complete Seasoning, to taste
 
Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Slice the French bread in half, lengthwise.
3. In a small bowl, melt the butter and stir in parsley, oregano, basil and Italian seasoning.
4. Using a small brush, spread the butter/herb mixture onto each piece of bread.
5. Place in the oven about 5 minutes, remove and set aside.
6. In a skillet on medium heat, season the Italian sausage to taste with the dry seasonings and cook until done.
7. Drain the grease and set aside.
8. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce on each piece of bread.  I didn’t measure here, I just didn’t make the layer of sauce very thick to prevent the bread from being soggy.
9. At this point, add as much or little cheese as you like and follow with your meat and veggie toppings.
10. Top the pizza off with a final layer of cheese and bake for about 8-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
11. Enjoy!
