This was so easy to make and satisfied my inner pizza beast! Thanks for a great recipe!
We had a little at-home happy hour last night, and I made these flatbread pizzas. So perfect! They were delicious and so quick and simple to whip up. Will definitely put these on our happy hour menu again and play around with some more toppings.
I love that you made it for happy hour!
I need that pizza oven because we make pizza all of the time. I ended up sliding the flatbread onto my pizza stone on the bbq grill and it was a hit with the family. I never thought of using the naan.
Once you get a pizza oven you’ll never want to cook pizza any other way!
This was an amazing easy weeknight meal and so easy to customize to everyone’s preference. I personally loved the addition of the fresh mozzarella!
I love the fact that people can have their own individual versions too!
Accidentally stumbled upon your pizza recipe last week and decided to make it for Friday dinner. We had a party of 8 people, so these pizza was perfect dinner! They ate the whole batch and I had to make a second one. The ingredients work so well together and the fresh basil with pepper made for a winning combination. I recommend serving them piping hot because the mozzarella did a nice stretch. I used naan bread to make these pizza.
I’m so pleased your party enjoyed it – it’s a no stress dinner that can please most people!
These flatbread pizzas are the perfect lazy man version of pizza. I never want to deal with pizza dough, flatbread to the rescue! Satisfies a pizza craving without the effort!
Totally agree, sometime you don’t want to deal with pizza dough, you just want something and you want it quickly!
I made these last night and was so impressed! I have such a craving for pizza all the time but it’s just not that convenient for me to get to the store so to have these ingredients on hand is a much better idea for when the cravings strike.
I loved the way the flatbreads tasted with the pizza toppings. I’m definitely going to always have a pack of these at home to do this again. No more messing around with pizza dough. This is just as delicious and you can add any toppings you want so the variations are endless.
I went with cheese and tomato with basil too though, and they were just perfect 🙂 and the hubby loved them as well.
Glad you both enjoyed them, that’s what I love about them, super easy and convenient and with a great pizza taste 🙂
