French Bread Pizza

   

French Bread Pizza made with homemade tomato sauce from last week. Chopped garlic, olive oil, fresh mozzarella cheese, all placed under the broiler, parsley on top. Tasty.

The finished product: Italian pasta sauce from scratch.

                     

Tonight I tried to one-up the best Italian pasta sauce I've ever tasted. I'm not sure how it went in overall comparison, but it was definitely an experience and extremely delicious.

The biggest key - fresh ingridients. If tonight would have been a Sunday, I would have made the tomato sauce and roasted red peppers from scratch.

So in my recipe I used tomato sauce, roasted red peppers, sauteed onions, sauteed carrots, fresh oregano, fresh basil, fresh parsley, Italian seasoning, chopped garlic, garlic paste, tomato paste and anchovy paste.

Sautéed, boil, cool and puree.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Pretty tasty for a first attempt. The anchovy and red peppers add a lot of depth.

Let me know what you think!
