Weeknight Dinner in Under 10 Minutes: Caprese Flatbreads

Ok, here's a meal you need on your meal plan next week! With Thanksgiving coming, who wants to be cooking heavy, complicated meals? I sure don't! This meal was inspired by an appetizer we had at a restaurant over the weekend, of course Evan (my Caprese salad lover) devoured it and declared I needed to make it at home. I know most of my recipes are from scratch, but if you don't have time to make your own bread, pesto, and balsamic glaze, then just buy some (I did!-- Sssshhhh)... I bought all ingredients at my local Trader Joe's.

 

Caprese Flatbreads

 

4 premade 6-inch flatbreads

1/2 cup premade pesto

3 medium tomatoes, sliced thin

8 oz. fresh mozzarella

balsamic glaze (found in the condiment aisle)

 

1. Turn oven on broil and move oven rack to the top shelf.

2. Place flatbreads on large baking sheet and spread 1-2 tablespoons pesto evenly on each flatbread.

3. Place 3 tomato slices on top of the pesto.

4. Place 3 thin slices of mozzarella on top of tomatoes.

5. Place flatbreads under broiler for 4-6 minutes until tops are nicely browned.

6. Remove from oven and drizzle with balsamic glaze.

 

Seriously, could not be any easier!!! My whole family enjoyed them, I served with a side salad and done in less than ten minutes. That is quicker than drive-thru!
