Take-out Tuesday, Fruity Flatbread, Savory or Sweet

One of the recipes on the July Recipe Bucket list is
Blackberry Ricotta Pizza with Basil from the Food Charlatan
I thought I had all the ingredients…
But when this one is around, fruit disappears fast!
There were only 2 blackberries left…
So a peach, a few strawberries and red grapes came to the rescue!
It has been hot and humid here,
just like so many places in the US in July…
This creamy fruit topped flatbread was a tasty lunch
for HHjr, Super Boy and Big E after their hot morning of fishing last Saturday
“What is that Gigi?” asked Super Boy
“We can eat that?!?!” exclaimed Big E
“Oh I thought that was something you were making for dinner,
looks great!” said HHjr…
It starts with a can of Pillsbury thin crust pizza dough
Unroll dough onto a well greased sheet pan and reshape,
pulling and stretching as needed, into a large rectangle
Prick dough all over with the tines of a fork
Bake at 400 for 8 minutes until it just turns golden
Spread with an even layer of ricotta cheese
then top with grated white cheddar
Add fruit pieces
Top with shaved Parmesan
Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes
or until crust is golden and cheese has melted
Cut into squares to serve
Top with crispy bacon, ham or cooked chicken to kick it up a notch!
If you want to make this a dessert pizza,
omit the white cheddar and Parmesan
and use white chocolate chips instead for a sweet treat
.

Looks tasty! I bet that was gone in no time!
Happy Tuesday!
Thanks Nancy!
Jenna, I know your guys enjoyed the flatbread. I would love the savory or sweet version of your recipe, it looks delicious. The heat and humidity have almost been unbearable over the past 4 or 5 days, I am staying indoors. Happy Tuesday!
Ugh! I have to come back in a few days for some appts next week, not looking forward to that weather!
This looks so AMAZINGLY delicious…and “Super Boy” is a doll! 😉
Thanks Pattie!
Very pretty! I love the idea of a dessert pizza:@)
hi Lynn, I tried to leave you a comment yesterday 😢 but your site said I had to be a member?
I got temporarily distracted by handsome “Super Boy” 😁 The flatbread looks delish.
aw, thanks Deb, when he was a little younger he looked exactly like Macaulay Culkin {Home Alone boy}
Yummmmmy, Jenna! Your grandson is such a cutie! Ryan’s tomato pie looks awesome, too.

After seeing that fabulous face at the top of the post, I could hardly take away my eyes to look at the recipe — but I did and it looks great!
Aw, thanks Jeanie! He’s a cutie 😘
Looks delicious Jenna. I’m sure your darling Super Boy enjoyed the treat.
All the guys liked it, it was a nice change up, not to mention a great way to use up bits of leftover fruit, thanks Emily!
YUM! This looks so good Jenna. I make a veggie pizza that I love so much. Hugs and blessings, Cindy
Thanks Cindy, I think pizza is universally loved!
Jenna this looks amazing! What a great idea to use ricotta with the fruit! My grandson LOVES fruit and will eat that over everything else so he will love this and the fact that it is a pizza…his other great love 🙂
