How to Make Pizza By The Yard
- Preheat your broiler.
- Cut a 12-inch French baguette in half horizontally. Place both halves, cut-side up, on a broiler pan.
- Broil 4 inches from the heat for 1-2 minutes, or until the bread is lightly toasted. Watch carefully to prevent burning!
- Transfer the toasted bread halves to two ungreased cookie sheets. Set aside.
- Turn off the broiler. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large skillet, brown 1 pound of ground beef over medium-high heat until thoroughly cooked. Break it up with a spoon as it cooks.
- Drain off any excess grease.
- Stir in 6 tablespoons of tomato paste, 1/2 cup chopped green onions, 1/2 cup sliced olives (your choice!), 1/2 cup water, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through and the flavors have melded.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
- Evenly spread the meat mixture over both halves of the French bread.
- Top with 2 large sliced tomatoes, 1/2 cup sliced green bell pepper, and 1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite pizza cheese).
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly golden brown.
