This is so delicious you really do not need any extras. Try it!

Method

Adjust the oven rack one slot above the middle and preheat the oven to 200°C.

Slice the bread in half, lengthways. Place on a baking sheet. Drizzle and brush cut sides with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with Garlic & Herb Seasoning.

Bake in the oven for 7 minutes. Remove baking sheet from the oven and spread cut sides generously with the Pesto of your choice. Top with cheese.

Return to the oven and cook for a final 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbling.

*Variations:*

Add sliced cooked chicken, sliced ham, slices of salami or tomato before topping the pizzas with cheese.

Cut into smaller serving portions.
