Pizza is a big-ticket item in our house. We eat it a lot. I’m pretty sure my husband could eat pizza every day and be perfectly happy. Now my daughter seems to be on this same path as well. The girl is tiny but she can eat A LOT of pizza.

I also love pizza, but I also love to cook and variety and quick recipe ideas. Enter french bread pizza. You get to make your own and add your toppings but no dough making involved and tastes amazing. Oh, also super easy. I mean, really easy.

Who Doesn’t Love Pizza?

One of my favorite pizzas (besides the obvious pepperoni) is barbecue chicken pizza. Sweet barbecue sauce with melty mozzarella and some tart red onion. Annnd maybe even more melty mozzarella. I love mozzarella.

You can either cook your own chicken breast and shred it or go the even easier route (which is what I did) and get a Rotisserie chicken from the store and shred the meat from that. Super easy and quick weeknight meal that your family will love!
