Base
- 1 Loaf French Bread
Toppings
- 2 cups Cooked & Sliced Chicken Breasts
- 1/2 cup Fresh Spinach
- 1/2 cup Purple Onion, sliced
- 1 Jar Alfredo Pasta Sauce
- 1 16 oz. Package Mozzarella Cheese or Italian Blend Cheese
- Fresh Black Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Slice French Bread: Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise to create two flat surfaces for the pizza toppings.
- Spread Alfredo Sauce: Evenly spread the Alfredo pasta sauce over the cut sides of the French bread, covering the surface completely.
- Add Toppings: Layer the fresh spinach, sliced purple onions, and cooked chicken breasts evenly over the sauce.
- Top with Cheese: Generously sprinkle the mozzarella or Italian blend cheese over the toppings to cover the entire surface.
- Season: Add freshly ground black pepper on top to taste for an added kick of flavor.
- Bake: Place the prepared bread pizzas in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) and bake for about 20 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Broil (optional): For a crispier and golden cheese topping, broil the pizzas for 1 to 2 minutes more, keeping a close watch to avoid burning.
Notes
- Use pre-cooked chicken breasts or leftovers to save time.
- Vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers can be added for extra flavor.
- Adjust baking time based on your oven for best crispy results.
- Broiling is optional but recommended for a golden cheese topping.
- Use Italian blend cheese for a richer taste, or mozzarella for a classic milder flavor.
