Nardio Quick and Delicious
I love love LOVE those frozen French Bread pizzas. Something about it is just ten times tastier than the standard pizza. The problem, though, is that the frozen stuff tends to be expensive and also the portions are kind of small. Plus it’s super easy to make your own Pizza Bread at home with delicious ingredients. If you’re one of those people that are always short on time, this Pizza Bread should take you no longer than 30 minutes with prep and cook time. I suggest making a lot because then you can just wrap it up in aluminum foil and freeze the rest for those days you’re too lazy to cook. I know I’ve had several of those days. Aside from how quickly and easily you can make this, one of my favorite things is that you won’t be wasting as much food. If you have broccoli in your fridge, you probably tend to cook with just the broccoli tops and discard the stems. For this recipe, we ask that you keep those stems and use a mandolin to get nice thin slices. The flavor of broccoli stem is kind of nutty and could almost be mistaken for artichoke.
