Cooking Steps
- Before starting, preheat the oven to 450˚F. Wash and dry all produce.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then onions and sausage.
- Cook for 4-5 min, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains.**
- Carefully drain and discard excess fat.
- Season with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Cook for 30 sec, stirring often, until fragrant.
- Meanwhile, halve tomato lengthwise. Thinly slice half the tomato into half-moons, then cut remaining tomato half into 1/2-inch pieces.
- On a parchment-lined baking sheet, arrange flatbreads. (NOTE: For 4 servings, use 2 parchment-lined baking sheets.)
- Spread pesto over flatbreads. (TIP: Skim off excess oil on top of pesto, if you like.)
- Sprinkle half the mozzarella over flatbreads, then top with sausage-onion mixture.
- Top with sliced tomatoes, then sprinkle with Parmesan and remaining mozzarella.
- Bake assembled flatbreads in the bottom of the oven for for 8-10 min, moving to the top of the oven halfway through, until edges are browned. (NOTE: For 4 servings, bake in the bottom and top of the oven, rotating sheets halfway through.)
