French Bread Pizza is a super quick and easy way to make homemade pizza. Let the kids make their own for a fun family meal!

While Madison was home from college, she made us the most delicious chicken bacon Alfredo pizza (recipe coming soon!). George and Livi weren’t too interested in a slice (more for me!) so I threw together this easy french bread pizza and they loved it!

And I loved how quick and easy it was. The trick is to toast the French bread a bit before adding the sauce so the bread doesn’t get too mushy. Though I stuck with the classic pepperoni pizza, I shook on a few red pepper flakes for added flavor. They’re totally optional of course.

Next time I’m going to make this french bread pizza a family affair and let everyone make their own half of a half. I know Nathan will go for classic Hawaiian, Madison and George will stick with pepperoni, Livi will do all cheese, Lauren will do something with a ton of red pepper flakes and I’ll go with pepperoni drizzled with some sort of honeyed chili pepper sauce like our local pizzeria uses. Mmm…
