Easy Pizza Night ideas
I talked about one of our favorite family traditions in my post: My favorite easy Homemade Pizza Crust Recipe. We all look forward to Friday nights to eat pizza and watch a movie together.
To save on costs I always try to make the pizza at home. Some Fridays we use My favorite easy Homemade Pizza Crust Recipe, but to try to help us not getting bored with pizza (but seriously, who could get bored of pizza?!?) I try to change the pizza up from time to time.
Here are two very easy, simple pizza ideas for your next pizza night. The kids love helping with both of these, and It’s a lot easier than making a crust! 😉
French Bread Pizza
Slice a loaf of french bread in half. Place both slices on a baking sheet and cook in 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes. You do not want it to get toasty, but it helps to harden up the bread just a bit.
After a few minutes in the oven take it out and put all of your toppings on it. Bake it in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Slice and serve!
Pizza on Rolls
I have made pizza this way using two different methods. I have used Pillsbury biscuits from the can. I have also used Rhodes Freezer Rolls. I think that I prefer the Rhodes rolls better. But, the Pillsbury biscuits are a little easier because they don’t need time to thaw.
Take the Rhodes Freezer Rolls out of the freezer three hours before you will need to eat. Place them on a baking sheet to thaw.
Once they are all thawed and had a little time to rise you are ready to make your pizzas!
Gently smoosh and pull the rolls to form flat pizza circles. This is the step your kids will really want to help with. Place them on a greased pan. Add your toppings, let everyone top their own individual pizza just the way they want it.
Bake in 400 degree oven for 15 minutes until cheese is melted and crust is slightly browned.
They are all ready to eat! Enjoy your own little personal pizza!

We have always loved French Bread Pizza! It is so easy to make, and delicious too! I have used canned biscuits, but never frozen rolls. I will have to try that next time as we have homemade pizza about once a month.
