Beefy Pizza Bread
Another great party food! Arrange slices on a platter and watch 'em fly off at your next football party or other gathering. Look at all that gooey deliciousness on that platter. French bread, topped with a mixture of ground beef, onion and green bell pepper, that has Parmesan cheese, Italian seasonings, and pizza sauce stirred in to it. Bake it, top it with slices of Mozzarella, return it to the oven just long enough to melt, then slice and serve.It's a super easy appetizer that everybody loves. Experiment with toppings and cheeses, very easy to throw together too.
Here's how to make it!
The first thing we're gonna do is saute some onion and green bell pepper in a little bit of olive oil. To that you'll add a pound of ground beef.

Since I'm using the bottom part of a round loaf, I want to cut it in half and then cut each of those halves into serving sized slices. Look at all that goodness there! Doesn't that just make your mouth water?
Cut into serving slices, arrange on a platter and serve this up at your next party! You'll love it!!

Recipe: Beefy Pizza Bread
©From the Kitchen of Deep South Dish
Prep time: 10 min |Cook time: 30 min | Yield: About 8 servings
Ingredients
Instructions
- 1 loaf of long French bread
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 1/2 of a medium onion, chopped
- 1/2 of a green pepper, chopped
- 1 pound of ground beef
- 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 7 ounces of pizza sauce
- 6 slices of mozzarella cheese, or enough to cover bread
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Split the French bread in half lengthwise. Set aside.
Place the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and saute the onion and bell pepper until soft. Add the ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned. Remove from the heat, drain if needed, and add the Parmesan cheese, salt, Italian seasoning and pizza sauce.
Place two sheets of aluminum foil on a baking sheet. Spread the ground beef mix evenly on both sides of the bread and place each on a piece of the aluminum foil, cupping the foil up around the bread. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the bread and fold down the aluminum foil to expose the bread. Top the bread with the mozzarella and return to the oven for an additional 8 to 10 minutes or until cheese is melted and just beginning to lightly brown.
Remove and let rest for about 5 minutes. Cut each half into slices and serve.
Also works well with a variety of breads. In the picture, I used a round boule loaf because that is what I had in the house at the time. Whatever bread you use, just slice it into serving sized pieces when you remove it from the oven.
