Chicken Pesto Flatbreads!

Yall this was one of the easiest and quickest dinner I’ve had 🤭

All you need is:

- Joseph’s Pita Bread

- Pesto Sauce

-Mozzarella Cheese

- Chicken cooked and seasoned

- Crushed Red Pepper (optional)

You put everyone on the flatbreads, put it in the oven at 400 until the cheese melts and that’s it! I suggest adding the chicken closer to the end so it doesn’t dry out 😊

... Read moreChicken Pesto Flatbreads are not just quick and easy, they are versatile and customizable as well. You can swap out the chicken for grilled vegetables or add your favorite toppings to create a unique flavor profile. Using Joseph’s Pita Bread not only keeps the meal quick but also adds a healthy twist, as it is lower in calories than traditional pizza crusts. To make your Chicken Pesto Flatbreads even more delightful, consider using different types of pesto, such as sun-dried tomato or garlic pesto, which can add varied flavors without much effort. You might also experiment with different cheeses; while mozzarella is a great choice, you could mix in some feta or goat cheese for a tangy kick. For those watching their calorie intake, using low-fat cheese and adding plenty of fresh vegetables can balance out the meal nutritionally while keeping it satisfying. This recipe is perfect for those busy weeknights when you need a quick meal solution. The preparation time is minimal, and you can put the flatbreads together in just a few minutes. Simply spread the pesto on the pita bread, layer on the cheese and chicken, and pop them in the oven until everything is heated through and the cheese is bubbly. Next time you're looking for a quick meal, try these Chicken Pesto Flatbreads and feel free to share your variations with the Lemon8 community! Whether you’re enjoying a cozy family dinner or a gathering with friends, these flatbreads are sure to impress.

· Chicken Alfredo Flatbreads
My easy dinner go to! Dress your flatbread up with any toppings you would like, I find the Alfredo as the base gives it so much flavor, pop them in the oven at 425 for about 10 mins or until desired crunch. I like mine a with a bit of a cruncher crust :) A quick meal in under 30 mins. #foo
