Mushroom & Smoked Gouda Flatbread Pizza

Here is another one of our families favorite flatbread pizzas

Earthy mushrooms with a smoky cheese made on Naan

Naan is flatbread cooked in a tandoor oven in India, Persian and Central Asia

It is a fantastic vehicle for so many dishes and it is a total family pizza night short cut

Here we are using some whole grain and some original Naan bread

We are going to start with 4 large baby portabella mushrooms

Clean your mushrooms with a dry paper towel and slice them up

Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium heat

Add in the mushrooms

Cook these 6-8 minutes or until they are nice and tender

Remove them from the pan and set aside

Instead of sauce we are going to go for a white pizza here

I still want a lot of flavor so we are going to brush the flat bread with some garlic, parsley and extra virgin olive oil

Add the garlic and parsley into a food processor along with 1/4 cup of oil and blend everyone up

We are using 1 whole wheat and 1 original Naan

Spread the garlic, parsley and oil on the bread

There is something about a smoked cheese like gouda or mozzarella that just works great with the earthy flavor of mushrooms

I just love the combo

We decided to use smoked gouda which we sliced on a box grater

Start covering the Naan with cheese

Now the next one

Now top with mushrooms

Preheat your oven to 450 F

Place in the oven and cook 20-25 minutes or until the cheese has melted and browned lightly and is bubbly and delicious

Sprinkle with a pinch of kosher salt

Let them rest a couple of minutes before slicing

Can you say YUM????
