We will need: 1 loaf, 500 g of ham (although any other sausage will do), 1 small onion (it’s better if it’s Yalta onion - it’s more piquant), a lot of cheese (200 grams), and hard cheese. 2-3 pieces of large tomatoes. Spiced sauce to taste. Provencal herbs or suneli hops, for example, can act as spices. And ketchup is often used as a sauce, in some cases mixing it with mayonnaise.

White sauce is also a good alternative. Basically, that's all.

You can also add something else to taste or replace some ingredients with others.

What to do with the loaf? So, there are several options here. Pizza from a loaf can look different. Some people “skim off” ¼ of the top of the bread and then cut out almost all of the crumb. Others cut it into large pieces. Honestly, the last option is more convenient. Because when later, after preparing the dish, you have to cut it into uniform pieces, the filling falls apart. This is why loaf pizza turns out to be much more “convenient” if you cut the bread into pieces and cut out the pulp from them.

So, after the loaf is prepared, you can do the simplest part of cooking. That is, the filling. To make the pizza delicious, you need to take into account several nuances. First, if you want to add mushrooms to a dish, you need to prepare them in advance. Fry in a frying pan. The fact is that during the process of heat treatment (i.e., when stewing or frying), mushrooms release abundant juice. You need to drain the resulting liquid and put the prepared and sliced ones into the loaf. “Dry”, so to speak. Because if the mushrooms start to release juice in the pizza, it will turn out soggy and won’t bake. By the way, the same goes for meat. If you want to put pieces of beef, chicken or pork instead of sausage, you must fry them, because they will remain raw in the bread. It is also advisable to prepare the sauce. Mix all ingredients and preferably add spices. You can even boil it to bring out the flavor. And then, when all the filling is placed in the loaf, it won’t be superfluous to sprinkle spices on top. This will add flavor and piquancy.

There is another way to prepare this dish. Pizza from a loaf in a frying pan - that's what we're talking about. Also simple, fast and tasty.

We will need: 5 pieces of loaf, 2 eggs, hard cheese, sausage (preferably smoked), ketchup - this will be enough.

Preparation: The frying pan will need to be greased with vegetable oil, and the bread should be placed in such a way that it completely covers the entire bottom. Then fry the pieces on each side. Afterwards, beat two eggs and pour them on top. Cut the sausage into slices and place into pieces. Afterwards, pour ketchup on top of everything. Finally, grate the cheese and sprinkle generously over the almost finished dish. Then you need to cover the frying pan with a lid and wait. It is necessary that the cheese melts completely. It is ideal if an even brown “film” of cheese forms on top. It will turn out very tasty. Here you need to make sure that the loaf does not burn on the bottom. In this regard, the oven is more convenient - the heat is distributed evenly there. In general, there are a lot of recipes. But each of them is original and tasty in its own way. So it's better to try each and decide which is best.
