French Bread Pizza: Frugal Living Fun

Back a decade ago I used to make french bread pizzas all the time. Got into the habit with Once a Month Cooking. Then I got out of the habit. But then Erin at $5 Dinners reminded me in her post, Pizza Loaves, Flashback to 1989. See, we have pizza most every Friday night. And, since Hodgepodgedad and I usually enjoy date night that night, I’ve been buying the $7 Walmart pizzas for the children and Nana. Much cheaper than ordering from a delivery place (haven’t done that in years!).

But Erin’s version is even cheaper. A store-bought $1 loaf of french bread, cut in half. (Leftover hamburger buns are pretty cheap with pizza toppings too   :) )

Then, the fun part! The french bread can be cut in child-sized portions and each child can put their own toppings on. Oh hooray for build-your-own fun!

Tricia faces a daily dose of chaos homeschooling five children – preschoolers to high schoolers. The biggest lesson she’s learned? At the end of the day – when the dishes are put away and the children are tucked in bed – truly what matters is each child’s relationship with the Lord. Raising children is a God-given privilege and, folks, the time is short.

  1. We do that with flour torillas!

  2. How much I learned from you Phyllis!! Yum.

  3. French bread pizza was one of our favorites for a quick meal. Did you know you can make mini pizzas by rolling canned biscuits flat or with English muffins?
