Fuggetaboutit Flat Bread Pizza With Fresh Mozzarella

You won't find this recipe on the TV series "The Sopranos" mainly because the show is over; it certainly would have been nice to hear Tony Soprano order a "Fuggetaboutit Flat Bread." There's still hope though, the Showtime series "Brotherhood" is still going strong and being filmed in Providence, Rhode Island; maybe they'll add this title to a menu or better yet an appearance on our TV show. Well, fame or no fame, this recipe's unique taste and ease of preparation will have you saying "Fuggetaboutit" in no time!

Difficulty (Scale from 1-10):

Breakfast Pizza

Ingredients: (10 inch round) flat breadsPreparationLay each flat bread down and spread a tablespoon of olive oil over the surface of each, then sprinkle garlic powder (to taste).

Serves: 8

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 0 minutes

Total Time: 10 minutes

5 tablespoons of olive oil

2 pounds of fresh mozzarella

4 medium sized ripe/fresh tomatoes

garlic powder - to taste

salt - to taste

freshly cracked black pepper - to taste

3/4 cup fresh basil - roughly chopped

Slice fresh mozzarella thin, or into thin strips (depending on your preference); and evenly place on the tops of the flat breads. Lightly add salt and freshly cracked black pepper (to taste), then top with sliced tomato and use salt sparingly (to taste).

Sprinkle chopped basil over the top of each flat-bread. Next drizzle some olive oil over the tops of the layered flat breads.

Slice the layered pizza into 8 pieces, a pizza wheel or kitchen shears may work best.

Serve as an appetizer or a tasty snack!

Enjoy your fresh pizza!
