Tomato Mozzarella and Basil Flat Bread

Tomato, Mozzarella and Basil Flat Bread

What you need:

- Wheat crust 
- Fresh Mozzarella Cheese
-2-3 Roma Tomatoes 
-6-8 Fresh Basil Leaves 
-2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil 
-Salt/Pepper to taste
-2 large garlic cloves


Directions:
1) Preheat over to 350 degrees.  On a greased cookie sheet roll out pizza crust evenly.  For the flat bread, spread out the crust pretty thin.  If you like more of a traditional style then leave the crust about1/2 inch thick.  
      *I am working on a recipe for wheat crust but for now we used Pillsbury Artisan Whole Wheat Crust

2) Drizzle crust with 1-2 Tablespoons of the Olive Oil. Bake the crust for abut 6-8 minutes. Remove from oven.

3) Slice tomatoes and layer evenly over the crust.  Use the amount you desire.  I tend to like lots of tomatoes, but others like them more spread apart.  Cut the fresh mozzarella into chunck or slices and layer evenly over crust.  Stack basil leaves together and roll up into a cigar shape.  Slice in order to create small ribbons of basil.  Sprinkle evenly over crust.  I like to then sprinkle with salt and pepper. 
      *I also like to use red chilli flakes
 
4) Slide flat bread in over and back for an additional 12-17 minute or until crust in golden and cheese is melted. Enjoy!
