Ingredients

Lavash flatbread.You can find lavash in the deli section of your supermarket. I used Joseph's Flax, Oat Bran & Whole Wheat Lavash Bread.

Pizza sauce.You only need two tablespoons of pizza sauce -- any more than that and you'll have soggy pizza.

Provolone and mozzarella cheese blend.Provolone and mozzarella are the ideal pizza cheese blend for meltiness and flavor -- it's what many pizzerias use.

Pepperoni.You can also use turkey pepperoni.

Variations

Crust.You can also make this on pita bread, naan, or a pre-baked pizza crust

Sauce.Basil pesto is a delicious substitute for pizza sauce.

Toppings.Feel free to experiment with your favorite toppings like sausage, Canadian bacon, bacon, bell pepper, green onion, red onion, black olives, or fresh basil. To avoid a soggy crust, use "juicy" toppings sparingly and layer them on top, not right on the crust.

Step 1: Place lavash on a parchment paper lined sheet pan. Evenly spread 1 teaspoon of olive oil on top of the lavash.

Bake at 400 degrees for 5-6 minutes or until it just starts to turn golden brown.

Step 2: Evenly spread the pizza sauce over the entire crust, all the way to the edges.

• The KEY to a crispy crust is pre-baking it. Don't skip that step!
• Easy does it on the sauce -- lavash pizza is really susceptible to sogginess.
• Spread the pizza sauce and cheese all the way to the edge of the lavash to avoid dry edges.
