Veggie French Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Heat up your grill. I used a George Foreman grill. If you do not have a grill, you can use a hot skillet.
• Put your veggies in a bowl. Add olive oil, salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
• Put veggies on hot grill until they're nice and carmelized.
• Put your French bread in the oven until it's crispy on the outside.
• Slice your French bread in half. Place your olives on the bread and top with Mozzarela cheese. Put under the broiler until the cheese melts.
• Top with veggie mix.
• Enjoy.
• Feel free to customize by adding tomato sauce or a different mix of veggies, etc.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Line baking sheet with foil, and treat with nonstick cooking spray.
• Scoop out a little of the middle out of each roll half.
• Place halves on baking sheet.
• Spoon dressing over each half and spread evenly.
• Layer veggies (or mix together) over dressing. (If using diced tomato, I like adding that first, then the other veggies, on top of the dressing--it's up to you).
• Sprinkle basil and garlic powder atop vegetables.
• Pop in the oven, and bake for 10 minutes until cheese melts or is crispy -- ovens vary.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450f degrees.
• Cut bread loaf in half widthwise, then each half again lengthwise to create 4 roughly equal pieces.
• Place the bread, cut side up, on a dry baking sheet.
• Place remaining ingredients in a food processor or blender, blend until they form a smooth paste.
• Spread the mixture evenly over the bread.
• Bake until tofu mixture is hot and bread toasted, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Cut each pizza into individual slices.

Steps:

• 1. Heat together Water, buttermilk and butter/margarine to 130 degrees.(Very warm) Mix together, 1 1/2 c flour, sugar, salt, yeast and garlic powder in large mixer bowl.
• 2. Add heated liquid to the dry ingredients and mix at medium speed for 3 minutes. Stir in another 1 1/2 c flour veggies, parsley and herbs to form a sticky dough. Turn out onto well floured counter and knead in as much flour as needed to make it soft, smooth and elastic. Knead in parmesan cheese a little as a time.
• 3. Place dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap and a towel and let rise to double. Punch down, divide into two equal portions and let rest covered for 5 to 10 minutes.
• 4. Roll each portion into a rectangle, using a little flour if needed to keep from sticking. Form into baguette shapes 12" long x 3" in diameter. Place on greased cookie sheet or parchment lined sheet that is dusted with cornmeal. Cover and let rise til doubled.
• 5. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and bake loaves for 20-30 minutes until golden brown and hollow sounding when tapped. approx. 200 degrees internal temp. Let cool slightly and turn out of pan to cool on a rack.
