I went to Mom’s house last week and walked in to this wonderful aroma of saucy garlicky pizza. She and Dad were kind enough to leave DT and I each a slice and oh my is was wonderful Mom told me how simple it was and gave me the recipe, so Friday I decided to try it out once the little ones were asleep. Took about 5 minutes to assemble, and 25 minutes to cook, about 30 minutes tops! Perfect for me!
I varied the recipe for what I had on hand and what DT and I like on our pizza, this recipe is very versatile use what you have on hand or like!
Ingredient:
Spicy red pepper sauce, 1 loaf unbaked garlic bread, half sweet onion, 2 bell peppers from DT garden, hard salami, mozzarella cheese, muenster cheese, and 1 handful garden basil.

place loaves crust side up
brush olive oil on crust
Pour sauce over and spread around, use as much as you like
Chop veggies

Bake for 25 minutes or until golden brown and sprinkle with chopped basil, salt and freshly ground pepper
