Step 3
In a small skillet, saute your onions and peppers for approx. 5 minutes to help soften them and release their flavors.

Spoon spaghetti sauce over each half until covered. Use your personal judgment and preference on how much you put on each half.

Place the Vegetarian french bread and baking sheet in over for 12 to 15 minutes or until the french bread crust becomes a light golden brown. Be careful not to allow your grated carrot to brown as this can give them a dry taste.
