Pizza Baguette
I love this variation of a little pizza. It's so light and packed with veggies!
Prepare all of your ingredients in advance. Start by chopping up all of your veggies: peppers, onions, artichokes, sundried tomatoes, spinach...
Then, slide your baguette in half long ways, and scoop out the doughy centre. We are going to use just the base.
While you are chopping your veggies, you can have your marinara sauce on the stove.
Your marinara is done when you can part the sauce and no juice runs into the open part, as seen above. You don't want it too runny.
Load up your baguette, pop it in the oven, and there you have it! A nutritious meal, PACKED with flavour!
