Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise, then cut each half into two pieces for a total of four pizza bases.
Place the bread pieces on a baking sheet with the cut side facing up.
Brush the cut sides of the bread with olive oil to help them crisp up during baking.
Spread an even layer of marinara sauce over each bread piece.
Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the marinara sauce.
Distribute the cherry tomatoes, diced bell pepper, and red onion slices evenly over the cheese.
Top with olives, chopped baby spinach, dried oregano, and optional red pepper flakes.
Season with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread edges are golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Slice into smaller portions if desired, and enjoy your delicious vegetarian French Bread Pizza!
