What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? A Cut Above: Lavash Fajita Flatbread! Lavash is a Turkish flatbread rolled into thin sheets and baked. Its texture is soft and pliable, which also makes it ideal for sandwich wraps or quesadillas. You can often find it in the Deli Department of your local grocery. The size I chose fit perfectly on a 9”x12” baking sheet. A typical package contains 4 sheets of lavash. Being a healthy option for the bread group, lavash contains fewer calories, less carbs, and is low in fat. When making a lavash flatbread pizza, show restraint when adding ingredients. Too many toppings can turn it into a soggy mess.
LAVASH FAJITA FLATBREAD
Ingredients:
1 sheet of Lavash bread; flax, oat bran, and whole wheat variety
3 tablespoons marinara sauce
1/2 cup chihuahua cheese, shredded
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 cup shredded fajita meat mixture with sautéed peppers and onions
Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Drizzled ranch dressing, if desired.
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 400°. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick oil. Place the lavash flatbread onto the pan. Spread marinara sauce evenly over all. Layer shredded chihuahua cheese on top. Sprinkle with dried oregano. Arrange fajita meat and vegetables over the cheese layer. Bake 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and edges of the flatbread are crispy. Garnish with fresh cilantro sprigs. Drizzle with prepared ranch dressing. Serve immediately.
Yummy

Oh, sure. Challah is way too loaded with carbs for The Boss, but lavash is almost dietetic.
