Pizza is the ultimate convenience food. But as many home cooks have learned, mastering the art of making pizza at home is no easy task -- you need a very hot (600 degrees F or more!) oven to make a truly dense and chewy crust. But fortunately, you can make a variation of pizza at home in just minutes:
1. Start with a base of store-bought Damascus flatbread, pitas, or tortillas.
2. Grill on both sides to give the crust a little crispness.
3. Drizzle with tomato sauce and sprinkle with Parmesan or mozzarella cheese.
4. Bake in a 400 degree F oven for about 12 minutes (on a pizza stone if you have one).
5. Top with fresh basil or Parma ham.
You can also try other variations that play off the bread-sauce-cheese combination of pizza. One of my favorites is to top a piece of grilled flatbread with baba ghanoush and tahini, then sprinkle it with anchovies and black olives or feta and toasted almonds. It's a quick and healthy meal you can make in minutes!
