When I am having a crazy day and need a dinner that can be ready in about five minutes, French Bread Pizza is my go-to meal. My kids love to help me load the pizza with the toppings they like and I love that it is something they will actually eat. Serve it with a green salad and you have a delicious meal ready in no time (that probably costs less than take-out)! There isn’t really a perfectly measured out recipe for this- you can make it however you want by using whatever ingredients your family likes!
