ll
FLATBREAD PIZZA
Creminelli Piccante Salami, Fresh Mozzarella
SERVES 6
II
Ingredients
- 3 Flatbreads (sub. Pita breads)
*HERE ARE SOME FLATBREAD IDEAS: AMERICAN FLATBREAD CAN BE PURCHASED FROZEN (LOCATIONS) OR THERE ARE MAKE-YOUR-OWN OPTIONS FROM ALLRECIPES.COM (LINK) AND BOBBY FLAY (LINK). I’M ALSO A BIG FAN OF INA GARTEN’S GRILLED PIZZA RECIPE (LINK). THE CREMINELLI PICCANTE SALAMI MAKES A GREAT PEPPERONI IN EACH CASE.
- 1 Sprig Rosemary, chopped
- 1 Sprig Thyme, chopped
- 1 Clove Garlic, chopped
- ½ Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 6 Large Fresh Mozzarella Balls
- 1-2 Creminelli Piccante Salamis
*FOR A MEAT-LOVERS PIZZA TRY 2 PICCANTE SALAMIS AND SOME CREMINELLI PICCANTE OR TRADIZIONALE FRESH SAUSAGE
II
Directions
1) Slice salami into thin disks.
*IF THE SALAMI IS ALREADY VERY FIRM AND DRY, SLICE THIN AND ADD THEM TO THE PIZZA FOR JUST THE LAST 2 MINUTES OF BAKING.
2) Cut mozzarella into ½-inch square pieces.
3) Combine rosemary, thyme, garlic and oil to make an herb oil.
4) Brush flatbreads with herb oil.
5) Arrange sliced salami on top of pizza and top with 10-12 squares of mozzarella.
6) Bake at 350° for about 8-10 minutes or until golden brown.

Great recipe and easy to do! I used small mozzarella balls rather than large ones to save on cutting, and also added the Piccante to the pizza during the last two minutes of cooking rather than for the full 10 minutes. Turned out excellent! Will definately make this again for a quick lunch or dinner when I have Creminelli on hand!

Was a great and fun recipe to do with our five year-old. Though we had to rely on local ingredients as some are not available in our area (e.g., Piccante Salumi e American Flatbread), we thought the end result was absolutely delicious. We used the Cacciatore Salumi and fresh pizza dough from Whole Foods! Grazie!
