Meat Lover’s Pizza Bread
-
1. Preheat Your Oven: Get your oven nice and hot to 375°F (190°C).
-
2. Prep the Bread: If your Italian bread isn’t already sliced lengthwise, go ahead and do that. Place the two halves cut-side up on a baking sheet.
-
3. Garlic Boost (Optional but Recommended!): In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and minced garlic. Brush this mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread. This adds an amazing extra layer of flavor!
-
4. Sauce It Up: Spread the pizza sauce generously over both halves of the bread, making sure to get it right to the edges.
-
5. Cheese, Please! Sprinkle about half of the shredded mozzarella over the pizza sauce on each half of the bread.
-
6. Load ‘Er Up: Now for the good stuff! Distribute the cooked Italian sausage, diced pepperoni, crumbled bacon bits, and the diced green bell pepper (if using) evenly over the cheese. Don’t be shy!
-
7. More Cheese! Top everything off with the remaining shredded mozzarella cheese. This ensures maximum melty, gooey goodness.
-
8. Bake to Perfection: Pop the baking sheet into your preheated oven and bake for 12-18 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly, and the edges of the bread are golden brown and crispy.
-
9. Slice and Serve: Carefully remove the pizza bread from the oven. Let it cool for a minute or two (it’ll be hot!). Slice into individual serving pieces and garnish with fresh basil or parsley if you’re feeling fancy.
-
10. Devour! Get ready for cheers and happy faces. This stuff is addictive!
Enjoy every single delicious bite! Let me know if you try it – I’d love to hear your thoughts!
