Focaccia Bread Pizza

Submitted by:

Description

I love pizza but I do not usually have time to prepare homemade dough. Some packaged pizza doughs can be okay, but others are not that great. I figured out that store bought focaccia breads work great and create a very tasty crust for any pizza! Try this simple recipe out tonight and you may never order delivery pizza again.

add to shopping list Ingredients

1 (8 x 14 inch) piece of focaccia bread
1 large tomato, thinly sliced
Fresh basil leaves
1 clove garlic, minced
1 can whole tomatoes
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
Fresh cracked black pepper

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 450 degrees. Slice your focaccia bread in half horizontally, to create two even pizza crusts. Lightly oil a baking sheet with olive oil and place bread pieces side by side. Brush the top of each crust with olive oil. In a bowl, crush your tomatoes by hand to break them up. Add garlic to mixture and distribute over pizza crusts. Top with shredded mozzarella cheese and parmesan cheese. Place tomato slices on top. Tear basil into small pieces and evenly distribute over pizzas. Crack black pepper on top and place into the oven. Bake for about 25 minutes. Remove from heat and garnish with more parmesan, fresh basil and a drizzle of olive oil. Yum!

I made this, but instead of using Focaccia I used whole wheat flatbreads and they were great! If you like slightly crispy pizza, try it out - just keep an eye on the bread, as ours was done about 8 minutes early.
I also used mushrooms as a topping.. great addition!
