I love homemade ham and pineapple pizza, but I don't care to make the pizza crust, relates Julie Valdez of Walnut Hill, Florida. So I came up with this sub sandwich that has the same flavors but it a snap to put together. Ingredients:
1 tube (11 ounces) refrigerated crusty french loaf |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt |
1 can (8 ounces) pizza sauce, divided |
1/3 pound sliced deli ham |
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained |
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese |
Directions:
1. Place the French loaf dough seam side down on a lightly greased baking sheet. With a sharp knife, cut six slashes, about 1/2 in. deep, on top of dough. Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.
2. In a small bowl, combine the oil, Italian seasoning and garlic salt; brush over hot bread. Cool on a wire rack for 8 minutes.
3. Split bread in half lengthwise. Hollow out bottom half, leaving a 1/4-in. shell (discard removed bread or save for another use).
4. Spread 2-3 tablespoons of pizza sauce over shell; top with the ham, pineapple and cheese. Replace bread top. Bake for 6-8 minutes or until cheese is melted. Heat the remaining pizza sauce; serve with sandwich. Yield: 4-6 servings.
