Summer tomatoes, mozzarella and basil make a quick and easy French Bread Pizza Caprese – 5 ingredients, 10 minutes to make!
French Bread Pizza Caprese
I’ve been taking advantage of the tomatoes and basil overflowing from my garden with these simple French bread pizzas. Only 5 ingredients, less than 10 minutes to make! Have them for lunch with a salad or dinner paired with a light zucchini soup. And if you want a more traditional recipe you can modify this French Bread Pizza with your favorite toppings.
Sometimes the simplest things are the best and when you use the freshest, in season ingredients you can’t go wrong. Any variations of tomatoes work great, heirloom or vine are my favorite but plum tomatoes or anything growing in your garden works. You want to keep the basil green so chop it right before you make it.
How To Make
To make these easy French Bread Pizza Caprese look for a good quality whole wheat French baguette or Italian bread as your base. Slice the fresh mozzarella then and melt in the broiler or toaster oven. Finish with fresh tomatoes, basil and balsamic glaze. So good and simple.
