Naan, Mushroom & Sweet Onion Pizza Recipe
Toddler boss LOVES pizza and I love coming up with healthy and fun combos that include her faves. I always use naan flatbread for the crust, which I get from Whole Foods Market or Wegmans in packs of 2-4. I prefer whole wheat, although I do sometimes use the traditional or garlic flavors, depending on what's in the combo.
This creation is a sumptuous blend of sautéed cremini/oyster/shitake mushrooms and sweet onions with organic mozzarella and homemade ("bambini") sauce. As of this post, I've officially named it "The Lexi" after one my favorite haute mamas-to-be, a gourmet pizza lover and a loyal reader of my blog!

SERVINGS: I usually don’t make more than one pizza of the same kind at a time, so the measurements below are just for individual pizzas, with the exception of the sauce. You can leave the sauce in the refrigerator if you think you'll use it again in 2-3 days or store it in the freezer for later. I also use it as pasta sauce (another delicious post coming soon:-)
One pizza generally feeds toddler boss 2-3 meals because I cut the pizza into small, toddler-friendly pieces. If you're making this for adults, plan on one pizza per person.
