French Bread Pizza Salad

This recipe for French Bread Pizza Salad uses help from the frozen aisle to get a simple and healthy meal on your family’s table fast. Post sponsored by Tap Influence. All opinions are mine alone.

Have you made or maybe ordered out a panzanella salad before? It’s a salad that incorporates crusty bread as part of the “bulk” of the meal. Not croutons. Those are more a condiment. In this case the bread is part of the salad. One of the star ingredients.

I keep frozen pizzas on-hand for quick meals. My kids like the Red Baron french bread pizzas especially. So I decided to use them to create a dinner-time salad. This pizza salad can be customized to your own tastes of course. 

My kids happen to like olives so I made sure to include them in this salad. And instead of pepperoni or sausage I used rotisserie chicken for my protein addition to keep things on the lighter side for the warmer weather. I personally love chicken on my pizzas!

So these Red Baron Five Cheese Garlic French Bread Pizzas provide excellent bread cubes for the purpose of tossing with the lettuce, tomatoes, green olives and chicken. The dressing is a simple mix of fresh lemon juice, red wine vinegar, olive oil, oregano, garlic salt and sugar. This French Bread Pizza Salad is a delicious and filling meal that my whole family loved!
