If you’re new to my blog, a few weeks ago, the hubs had to stay at work overnight for like, 5 nights.  Yeah.  It sucked.  It was an international incident and crazy crazy times.

I had this filet French bread pizza planned that week. 

I had a few dishes planned that week in cluding another pizza.  This easy Philly cheesesteak pizza just loos so good!  Some of which I made and some I didn’t.  Since this one was pretty quick – I mean, what French bread pizza isn’t?  Since it was quick and easy, I decided to make it anyway.  The beef was marinating and it’s always a shame to let good beef go to waste.

Oh, yeah, for those that are new, I’m a food hoarder.  I can’t throw perfectly good food out.  Some would say I’m not being wasteful.  But sometimes, it just gets to the point of hoarding. I just can’t throw out that left over half a steak even though I know I’m not going to get to eat it this week.

Anyway.

After walking to the metro and then taking the train home I got home around 6:30-ish or so.  Which is sort of late to start dinner.  But I turned the oven on, got changed, and then walked the dogs.  By the time I got back the oven was ready to bake this baby up!

How do you make filet French bread pizza?

And how easy is it to just layer some meat on some bread, toss on some cheese, veggies, and more cheese and then bake?  Not hard at all.  Honestly.  It took like 5 minutes to prep and like 20 to 25 minutes to bake.  Yup.  Had dinner on the “table” by 7 and then had 2 hours to chill before hitting the sack and doing it all again the next morning.

Yup.  He stayed at work 4 nights, so I had a few nights of this type of routine.  Which really sucks on top of the sucky-ness that already existed in this sucky situation.  Do you get that it sucked?

But this filet French bread pizza? It didn’t suck.  It SO didn’t suck and was perfectly delicious, cheesy, beef-y, and amazingly delicious.  This filet French bread pizza was the perfect comfort food for this craptastic situation we were in.  But it was not the same old pizza.  It was kicked up and made fabulous with some filet thinly sliced, some caramelized onions, and some delicious blue cheese.  Oh yeah baby.  I brought it!
