Grilled Veggie Flatbread Pizza

When did ordering a pizza for a family of 4 become so difficult?  Veggies - no veggies, pepperoni or sausage, margarita or meat lovers --- and don't even get me started on the thick crust vs. thin crust debate.  I think everyone in this family has a different preference when it comes to pizza.  (I blame the fact that there are just far to many choices these days.)  

I love to make homemade pizza and besides it's superior flavor, making it at home allows me to customize the pizzas and accommodate everyone's individual tastes.  I usually reserve pizza making for Friday or Saturday nights but I found a recipe on the sabra.com website that looked easy enough to make on a busy weeknight.  The base for the pizza was naan bread instead of a traditional pizza dough.  That alone saved tons of time because they sell naan everywhere now - even Wal Mart carries it.  

Bought a package of naan breads and I made some of them into more traditional style pizzas and I turned 1 of them into a grilled veggie flatbread.  (Guess who that was for?)

Heat bread by placing on a grill or over the flame of a gas burner.  (Let's face it - I'm a cold weather wimp so I opted for the indoor version.)
Place warmed breads on a baking sheet and spread with hummus.  (or pizza sauce)

Spoon vegetables on top and sprinkle with seasoning.

Sprinkle with cheese.
​And if you are feeding teenagers - top with cheese and pepperoni.

Bake in a 400 degree oven until cheese melts.  (About 10 minutes.)   Drizzle with balsamic vinegar while warm.

​This was a delicious way to have pizza and to get lots of vegetables in my diet too.  It was really yummy and I still managed to make everyone's pizza requests come true.  (For today anyway.)

Ciao!
