Hello! It’s Peta back with another Scandinavian inspired recipe. I did a little research on lunches, fresh salads were a huge hit along with flatbreads. It got me thinking about the glorious salads we have here in the Mediterranean and I came up with the flatbread pizza. This flatbread is gluten free, dairy free and refined sugar-free. Topped with passata and fresh salad it’s now one of my favourite lunches!
LUNCH: FLATBREAD PIZZA SALAD
Makes: 1 Pizza
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup or 125g of rice flour
- 180g or 2 cups of gluten free oats
- 2 Tbsp of olive oil
- Pinch of salt
- 3 Tbsp of mixed seeds (optional)
- ½ Cup of water
- ½ Carton of tomato purée
- Fresh salad. I used mixed lettuce leaves, red and yellow peppers, cherry tomatoes, sweetcorn and cucumber
Method:
- Pre-heat oven to 180’C.
- In a bowl mix one cup of rice flour with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tbsp of mixed seeds and a pinch of salt.
- Little by little add the water as you mix until it forms a dough.
- Flatten with your hands onto a greased baking tray.
- Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, you can either add the toppings whilst it’s hot or wait for it to cool – both options taste great!
- Spread the tomato passata generously across the base and add your salad toppings.
