This Mediterranean pizza naan is a refreshing twist on classic pizza, combining all the bold flavors of the Mediterranean on a warm, whole wheat pita base. It’s light yet satisfying, and the creamy tzatziki brings a tangy, herb-infused freshness that perfectly complements the crunchy cucumber, juicy tomatoes, and creamy avocado.

 

One of the best things about this recipe is its versatility—think of it as a blank canvas for your favorite toppings! You can mix things up by adding roasted red peppers, artichoke hearts, or a sprinkle of feta for a bit more Mediterranean flair. For a kick of spice, add a pinch of crushed red pepper, or go a bit sweet with a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Whether for a casual dinner or a fun appetizer, this Mediterranean pizza naan is perfect for making your own!

 

Dr. Blake’s Top Tip: Use whatever vegetables you have on hand as a topping for the pizza. Roasted vegetables pair well with the tzatziki sauce.
