How To Make Bell Pepper Pizzas

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
Cut the bell peppers in half lengthwise and remove the stem and seeds.
Place the bell pepper halves on the baking sheet and press them down so they flatten slightly.
Bake the peppers for 10 minutes to soften them slightly.
After the 10 minutes is up, top the peppers with your favorite toppings.
Bake them again for another 10 minutes.
Remove them from the oven and serve.

What To Top Bell Pepper Pizzas With

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make these pizzas ahead of time?

Yes! You can make the entire pizza ahead of time, keep them in airtight containers in the refrigerator, and then when you are ready to serve them, reheat them in the microwave or oven.

What other toppings can I use?

You can use whatever topping you prefer on pizza! Pepperoni, black olives, broccoli, sausage, or ground beef would all be great options to top these bell peppers.

Can I broil peppers instead of baking them?

Yes! You can broil them instead of baking them, but stick close to the oven. When broiling, things can burn very fast. Instead of baking for 10 minutes, you'll want to broil the peppers for 3-5 minutes or until the cheese is browned to your liking.
