Ingredients
Scale
Main Protein:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 cloves garlic
Base:
- 2 pieces flatbread
- 200 grams mozzarella cheese
Herbs and Seasonings:
- 200 grams fresh spinach
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and place your two flatbreads on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb ground beef and cook for 6-7 minutes, breaking into small crumbles and seasoning with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper.
- Transfer the browned beef to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving drippings in the skillet.
- In the same skillet, sauté 2 minced garlic cloves for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add 7 ounces chopped spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until the leaves completely wilt and shrink.
- Spread the cooked beef evenly across your flatbreads, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Distribute the sautéed spinach over the beef, ensuring an even layer.
- Sprinkle 7 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese generously over the top of each flatbread.
- Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil across the pizzas.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until your cheese melts completely and edges turn golden brown.
- Remove from the oven, let cool for 2 minutes, then slice each flatbread into four pieces.
Notes
- Swap store-bought flatbread with naan, pita, or homemade pizza dough for variety in crust texture and flavor.
- Experiment with ground beef alternatives like ground turkey or plant-based crumbles for different dietary needs.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for extra crispy edges and better heat distribution when baking the flatbread pizza.
- For added nutrition, sprinkle some red pepper flakes or drizzle balsamic glaze just before serving to enhance the overall taste profile.
