Instructions

  1. 1Whisk together all sauce ingredients and set aside.

  7. 7Top each flatbread with ½ cup cheese, then a quarter of the mushrooms, tomatoes, and onions, then another ½ cup cheese. Bake on a pan or stone until crust is done to your liking, about 12 minutes.
  8. 8Slice each flatbread into about 6 triangles and serve garnished with arugula.
