5 Minute Margherita Flatbread Pizza
Description
This fast Margherita Flatbread Pizza assembles pizza sauce, fresh tomato slices, and mozzarella cheese on pre-made flatbreads. Baking at 410°F melts the cheese until it bubbles and the flatbread crisps at the edges. Topping with fresh basil or arugula after baking introduces a peppery freshness and vibrant color. The ingredients highlight classic Margherita flavors with a convenience that allows assembling and baking within minutes.
The thin flatbread base crisps without requiring prolonged baking times, while the fresh mozzarella softens and melds with sliced tomatoes for a juicy, creamy topping. The herbs contribute a fresh herbal aroma and flavor contrast. It's suitable as a quick lunch, light dinner, or snack and pairs simply with a side salad.
Ingredients
- 4 flatbread
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce favorite
- 2 tomato or two cups of cherry tomatoes, large
- 2 cup mozzarella cheese fresh

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 410°F.
- Place the flatbreads next to each other on a baking sheet, making sure to leave a bit of space in between each. Spread the marinara sauce onto each flatbread.
