  • 1/2 cup microgreens or arugula
  • Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil or balsamic glaze

Instructions

  2. Step 2: Place the flatbreads on a baking sheet and spread the roasted red pepper hummus evenly over each one.
  3. Step 3: Top the hummus with quartered olives, chopped artichokes, halved cherry tomatoes, crumbled feta cheese, and microgreens or arugula.
  4. Step 4: Add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil or balsamic glaze over the toppings for extra flavor.

Tips & Variations

  • For a spicier kick, add a sprinkle of red pepper flakes or a drizzle of harissa sauce before baking.
  • Swap microgreens for fresh basil or spinach if preferred for a different flavor profile.
  • You can substitute the hummus with pesto or a traditional tomato sauce to change up the base taste.
  • Use gluten-free naan or flatbread for a gluten-free option.

Storage

Store any leftover pizza in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5–7 minutes to retain crispiness. Avoid microwaving to keep the flatbread from becoming soggy.

How to Serve

The image shows a flat round bread base with a light golden-brown crust and slight charring on the edges, spread with a smooth, creamy beige hummus layer. On top, there are halved cherry tomatoes that are bright red and glossy, slices of green artichoke hearts with a soft texture, whole large green olives, and halved dark purple olives. Scattered fresh green microgreens add a pop of brightness. Small white crumbles of feta cheese are dotted all over the surface. The dish is finished with a dark balsamic glaze drizzled artistically across the toppings. The flatbread is placed on a round wooden board, which sits on a white marbled textured surface.
