Cheesy Flatbread Pizza
Cook time: 25 minutes
Servings: 4
1 piece (12 inches) cracker bread or flatbread
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus additional for brushing
1 package (8 ounces) Borden Cheese Mild Cheddar
Shreds, divided
8 strips thick-sliced bacon, cooked crisp and
broken into 1-inch pieces
4 whole garlic cloves, sliced
4 plum tomatoes, sliced
1/2 red onion, cut in strips
1/4 cup chopped Italian parsley
fresh basil leaves (optional)
Heat oven to 400 F.
Brush bread with small amount of olive oil and place on cookie
sheet. Spread 1 1/2 cups cheese evenly around bread. Top evenly
with bacon pieces.
In small skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil until
hot. Add garlic and saute until lightly browned. Sprinkle onto pizza.
Arrange sliced tomatoes and red onions on pizza.
Add parsley to remaining cheese and spread over ingredients.
Bake 10 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Cut into squares
and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if
desired.
Tip: For a different flavor profile, try grilling pizza rather than
baking. Brush raw side of dough with olive oil and grill until bottom
of crust is golden brown.
Sweeten the Deal
For the perfect ending to a perfect day, look to some of
nature’s best ingredients, like fresh apples and honey. This
fruity crisp is packed with flavor from tart, juicy apples and
a delicate sweetness from honey that coats the fruit and lends
a unique character to the crumbly topping. Find more sweet
