I enjoy making homemade bread with this recipe. When I make toasted cheese sandwiches with this bread, it's just like eating pizza.

We absolutely loved this bread!! Thank you for sharing...
This bread is incredible! Mine came out a little dense, so I would possibly recommend using Les flour, but overall I'm dead impressed
Loved this bread....but what was better than the bread was the dried bread crumbs that I made and used on chicken breasts. It was AMAZING.
I altered the recipe slightly after making it a couple of times. I substituted 1 tablespoon of pizza seasoning for the spices/herbs, used an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce and enough V8 to measure a total of 2.5 cups of liquid. Additionally, I used bread flour because regular flour didn't rise enough and the bread was dense. That being said, this is delicious bread. You can toast it for breakfast, make grilled cheese sandwiches or even shape slices into hors d'oeuvres, top with a little sauce and sauce and toast under the broiler. This is one of my favorite bread recipes!
I omitted the herbs/spices and used two teaspoons of a pizza spice blend. I used V/8 so I skipped the extra salt. This bread really does taste like pizza! Grilled with a slice of cheese and fresh heirloom garden tomatoes gives you a tasty delight that you could serve to company.
