Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 whole French bread loaf
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 medium Zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
- 1 small Yellow onion, sliced into thin rings
- 1 cup Mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 cup Pizza sauce
- 2 cups Shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cups Grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.25 cups Fresh basil leaves, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and set the grill to medium-high heat.
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place it cut-side up on a baking sheet.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil and minced garlic together. Brush this mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
Prepare the vegetables by placing zucchini slices, red bell pepper strips, onion rings, and mushroom slices in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning. Toss to coat evenly.
Grill the vegetables on medium-high heat for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are slightly charred and tender. Remove them from the grill and set them aside to cool slightly.
Spread an even layer of pizza sauce over the garlic-infused bread halves.
Top each bread half with an even layer of shredded mozzarella cheese.
Arrange the grilled vegetables over the cheese layer, spreading them out for even coverage.
Sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the vegetables and mozzarella layer.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the bread pizzas from the oven and let them cool for 2-3 minutes. Garnish with fresh chopped basil, if desired.
Slice each bread half into smaller pieces and serve immediately. Enjoy your Grilled Veggie French Bread Pizza!
