Cajun Pizza

Or Boudin "Big Bread" 



I'm not sure if we made up this recipe, or if people make it all the time. I certainly have never heard of it. Casey made it a few days ago when we were in a pinch. It's easy to make, and it's a great lunch or dinner. I wouldn't say it's the healthiest recipe in the world, but throw some sautéed veggies on the side, and you're good to go.

Boudin is a cajun style pork sausage. Find it where you would find sausage. 

Ingredients
  • 1 package of boudin
  • 1 loaf of crusty french bread 
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • Minced garlic
  • Shredded cheese (we used cheddar & pepper jack)
Turn the oven on to 350º. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Boil boudin according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a small sautée pan, melt the butter and add garlic. Cut the french bread in half (you should have 4 pieces total), and place them onto a baking sheet. Once butter and garlic smells fragrant, use a basting brush to spread butter and garlic onto bread. When boudin is cooked, carefully cut casings off and spread boudin on top of the bread (you do not want to eat casings!). Sprinkle as much cheese as you would like, and place baking sheet in the oven. Bake until cheese is melted and bread is nice and toasty.
