Trader Joe's Grilled Vegetable Flatbread

This fuss-free flatbread is basically a cheesy grilled vegetable pizza with a delicious red pepper sauce instead of marinara. And it's made entirely from Trader Joe's ingredients!

Ingredients

  • 1 Trader Joe's Rustic Ciabatta Flatbread
  • 1 cup Trader Joe's Red Pepper Spread with Eggplant and Garlic (about 2/3 of the jar)
  • 1 1/2 cups Trader Joe's Quattro Formaggio cheese
  • 1 bag Trader Joe's frozen Misto Alla Griglia (Thawed at room temperature or in the microwave. If you want a less veggie heavy flatbread, use only half the bag.)

For serving: (optional)

  • Crushed red pepper
  • Dried oregano

Instructions

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Spread the red pepper spread on the flatbread in an even layer. (I like to go all the way out to the edges.)
  • Sprinkle the cheese on top of the red pepper sauce.
  • Gently pat the vegetables dry between two layers of paper towels. (There’s quite a bit of oil in the veggies, and patting some of it off will prevent extreme flatbread greasiness.) Arrange the veggies on top of the cheese in an even layer.
  • Bake the flatbread on a pizza stone or directly on a rack in the oven for 12-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the flatbread is brown and crispy around the edges. (You can bake on a baking sheet, but your flatbread won’t crisp as nicely.)
  • Slice and serve!

Notes

If you don't have access to a Trader Joe's, you can easily recreate this recipe using your favorite flatbread, any red pepper spread or tomato sauce you like, an Italian cheese blend, and fresh or leftover grilled vegetables!
