when i was little we used to make these open faced grilled cheddar cheese sandwiches. they had ketchup between the cheese and the bread and sat in the oven until the cheese melted and the bread toasted a bit.
i recently have been exploring my roots. we brought back the tradition of "poor man's pizza" but put the italian back into it. don't forget that layer of olive oil between the bread and the sauce. it keeps the bread from getting too soggy. like butter on a hamburger bun keeps the hamburger juice in the burger and off your bun.

this looks simply yummy.
a good idea for the bread i just baked today.
I'm embarrassed to admit I never knew that's how to keep bread or buns from getting soggy. Thanks for the tip! What kind of bread do you use? They look heavenly.
cj, i've been eyeing your bread over on your blog. looks D- lish.
enid, i bought a loaf of italian sandwich bread at publix awhile ago and froze it. it worked well.
We used English muffins when I was little. But with my kiddos, I used pitas. There was no worry about soggy bread, then, because the 'crust' on the pita took care of that.
When we used to fast on bread and water, we went straight to 'pizza bread' which included the sauce and cheese directly in the bread dough.
maryann, that pizza bread sounds GOOOOOD. did you just use a regualr bread recipe and mix in the pizza ingredients? frontier makes a killer salt free pizza seasoning blend. we ran out and used vann's. just as good.
