Brown Beech Mushroom Flatbread

This Brown Beech Mushroom Flatbread makes a wonderful appetizer as it comes together in less than 15 minutes. Or you can double the recipe and serve it for dinner with a nice salad. I love using Naan flatbread because of its soft airy interior and crunchy crust once it comes out of the oven. If you can’t find naan flatbread, you may use pita bread, prepared pizza crust or even regular tortillas. The sauce base is a flavorful basil pesto, and you can find prepared pesto in jars right next to spaghetti sauce at the grocery store. (Serves 2)
