Ingredients
- Naan bread – Use your favorite naan or flatbread. We really like the garlic naan bread as it adds an extra layer of flavor. Stonefire Garlic Nann Bread is one of our favorites but you can use whatever brand your favorite grocery store sells.
- Tomato Sauce – Use your favorite tomato sauce. If you like to make your homemade tomato sauce, use that. You could also use your favorite Alfredo sauce if you’d like a white pizza instead. Rao’s is a great tomato sauce but again, use whatever tomato sauce you usually use. You could also use some store-bought or homemade pesto sauce.
- Cheese – Any shredded cheese works for this recipe. You can use shredded mozzarella, provolone, Italian, parmesan, and cheddar. You can also use fresh mozzarella cheese if you have that on hand and make Margherita pizza.
- Meat – We like to use pepperoni and whatever deli meat we have in the refrigerator.
Other topping ideas:
Add your favorite veggies: spinach, onion, mushrooms, peppers, broccoli, and sundried tomatoes.
Other meat options you can use: are sausage, grilled chicken, ground meat of your choice, and bacon (cooked)
How to make this quick, easy, and delicious naan bread pizza
Place the naan flatbreads on a foil-lined baking sheet. Spread an even layer of your favorite tomato sauce. Then sprinkle the cheese and the meat. Bake in a preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
And here are two more variations we made with spinach and olives, pepperoni, salami, cheddar and mozzarella cheese.
