Portobello Mushroom and Swiss Chard Flatbread
with green salad with pears
Topped with melted cheese, these little flatbreads resemble pizza when they come out of the oven, but are super speedy to make. A simple garlicky olive oil stands in for sauce as the base and is topped with sauteed chard and mushrooms.
Smarts: Gruyere cheese has a uniquely rich and tangy flavor that adds a lot to these simple flatbreads. It can be a bit pricey, so feel free to use mozzarella or Swiss cheese if you prefer.

This is so delicious using the gruyere, as opposed to the mozzarella. Fantastic, salty yumminess!
0 HelpfulI would skip adding the salt to the garlic oil. Mine didn't seem to incorporate well, so I ended up with spots that were really salty. Otherwise this was tasty.
0 HelpfulPretty good. Even the kids ate it. Used baby kale instead of chard and sliced brown mushrooms for simplicity.
0 HelpfulThis was such a surprise, I was expecting moans and groans but it was a big hit. I used garlic and coriander naans as the base, cheddar cheese and sweetheart cabbage instead of chard. The salad was also well received, will definitely make again.
