Ingredients

Optional Add-Ins: Sliced avocado, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, arugula, or a dash of red pepper flakes for heat.

Equipment

• Baking sheet or pizza stone
• Sharp knife and cutting board
• Small skillet (for sautéing veggies)
• Mixing bowl
• Measuring cups and spoons
• Spatula
• Parchment paper (for easy cleanup)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven. Set your oven to 425°F (220°C). If you have a pizza stone, place it in the oven to heat up.
2. Prepare the veggies. While the oven heats, wash and chop all your vegetables: halve the cherry tomatoes, slice the red onion, dice the bell pepper, and mince the garlic.
3. Sauté the vegetables. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, onion, and bell pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the spinach and cook until just wilted, about 1 minute. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
4. Assemble the flatbreads. Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. Place the flatbreads on the sheet. Brush each flatbread lightly with olive oil.
5. Layer the toppings. Sprinkle shredded mozzarella over the base, then distribute the sautéed veggies, cherry tomatoes, and crumbled feta evenly.
6. (Optional) Add eggs. If using eggs, create a small well in the center of each flatbread and gently crack an egg into each.
7. Bake. Transfer the flatbreads to the oven. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, edges are golden, and eggs are set to your liking.
8. Finish and serve. Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with fresh basil or parsley, add extra black pepper, and any optional toppings like avocado or red pepper flakes.
9. Slice and enjoy! Cut into wedges and serve warm.

Tips & Variations

• Flatbread Choices: You can use naan, store-bought flatbread, or even homemade pizza dough. For a gluten-free option, choose a gluten-free flatbread base.
• Make it Vegan: Omit the cheese or use vegan cheese, and skip the egg. Amp up the veggies and consider adding marinated tofu or tempeh for plant-based protein.
• Get Creative: Try different cheese combos like goat cheese and cheddar, or add roasted sweet potatoes for a heartier bite.
• Meal Prep Friendly: Assemble your flatbreads the night before, then bake in the morning for a quick, fresh breakfast.
• Serving Kids: Let kids build their own flatbreads by offering a variety of toppings. It’s a fun way to encourage healthy eating!

“Don’t be afraid to experiment—with flatbreads, almost anything goes. Use what’s in season for the freshest results.”
