Lavash Bread Pizza is a thin-crust pizza topped with my favorite veggies and super quick and easy to make. Perfect weeknight meal!
Now that I'm a new mom, I'm all about no-fuss meals. These days I'm just whipping up quick meals with ingredients sitting in the fridge. This Lavash Bread Pizza is super quick and easy to make and relatively healthy too. Top with your favorite veggies!
What is Lavash Bread Pizza?
Lavash Bread Pizza is essentially a thin-crust Veggie Flatbread Pizza. In this case, I chose mushrooms, spinach, and olives as my toppings with Rao's Arrabbiata Sauce.
How to prevent soggy pizza?
Firstly, don't use too much sauce else your pizza will get soggy.
Secondly, for this recipe, you will first saute the mushrooms and spinach. Once done, transfer the mixture to a paper towel. Doing so will absorb the excess moisture and the end result will be a crispy pizza.
Can I make this recipe vegan?
Yes! Simply replace parmesan cheese with your favorite vegan cheese.

How to make Lavash Bread Pizza recipe step by step?
Prep
1. Slice the mushrooms. You will also need some fresh baby spinach.
2. Heat up a castiron skillet. Once hot, add oil followed by mushrooms. Cook for a minute.
3. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for 3 minutes.
4. Add 8 cups of spinach. Season with salt to taste. Cook for 3 minutes or until the spinach wilts.
5. This is what you should have.
6. Transfer the spinach mushroom mix to a paper towel to help soak the moisture. Doing this step will ensure your pizza won't be soggy.
Assemble
1. Split a whole wheat lavash bread (I love Trader Joe's) in half.
2. Spread 2 spoonfuls of your favorite marinara sauce (I used Rao's Arrabbiata Sauce). Don't add too much sauce else your pizza will be soggy.
3. Spread some of the spinach mushroom mixtures. Also, top with sliced olives.
4. Top with parmesan cheese (preferably the grated kind, not shredded). Grated melts way better.
5. Place the lavash bread into a toaster oven and bake at 400 degrees for 4-5 minutes. The lavash bread will get toasty.
6. In the meantime julienne some fresh basil.
7. Pizza is done.
8. Cut into 4 pieces. Top with fresh basil and red crushed pepper.
Enjoy!

Fantastic dish, flavorful and crispy pizza, just the way my family and I like it! The idea of saueting the veggies was really helpful, it not only prevented pizza from being soggy but also enhanced flavors from veggies. Loved adding spinach for pizza and wheat lavash bread made it healthier than white bread base. Thank you for sharing! Big thumbs up from me and my family !
