Here’s an easy appetizer or quick dinner idea that riffs on the Italian classic pizza: Margherita Flatbread! This simple way to make a pizza harnesses the flavors of Margherita pizza to make a killer appetizer. It’s got a flavor popping tomato sauce, gooey mozzarella cheese, and pops of herbaceous fresh basil. Making it with purchased flatbread cuts out the need to make a pizza dough. Of course, there’s nothing like a true Pizza Margherita: but this one is ideal for shortcuts! Our entire family loves this one.
What you need for Margherita flatbread
Margherita flatbread is a quick way to make margherita pizza, the most famous of all Italian pizza flavors. Invented in the 1800s, pizza margherita showcases the colors of the Italian flag: red from the tomato sauce, white from the mozzarella, and green from the basil. Common belief is the flavor was named after Queen Margherita of Savoy, an Italian queen in the 1800’s.
