🍕 Basil Breeze Flatbread

Crispy flatbread with herby pesto, melty mozzarella, and juicy tomatoes — like a caprese salad took a vacation to Italy and brought back a tan.

Ingredients (makes 2 small flatbreads):

  • 2 flatbreads, naan, or store-bought pizza crusts
  • 1/3 cup pesto (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup fresh mozzarella, torn or sliced
  • 1–2 medium tomatoes (or handful of cherry tomatoes), sliced
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Olive oil, for drizzling
  • Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
  • Optional: balsamic glaze or chili flakes for finishing flair

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Heat to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment.
  2. Assemble the Breeze:
    Place flatbreads on the sheet. Spread a generous layer of pesto, then arrange mozzarella and tomatoes on top. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  3. Bake Until Golden:
    Bake 8–12 minutes, or until cheese is melty and edges are crisp and golden.
  4. Finish with Flair:
    Top with fresh basil, a drizzle of olive oil, and (if you’re fancy) a swirl of balsamic glaze or a pinch of chili flakes.
  5. Serve Warm or Room Temp:
    Slice into breezy little wedges and serve with a glass of something cold.
