Ingredients
  

For the Alfredo Sauce:

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup unsalted butter

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional, but recommended for added warmth)

For the Flatbread:

2 store-bought naan or pita breads

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup fresh spinach leaves, washed and dried

1/2 cup sliced button mushrooms (or your choice of mushrooms)

1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, roughly chopped

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Alfredo Sauce:

    - In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat until it begins to foam.

      - Add the minced garlic, sautéing it for 1-2 minutes until it releases its fragrant aroma—be mindful not to let it brown, as this will alter the flavor.

        - Slowly pour in the heavy cream, stirring continuously. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer without boiling.

          - Gradually whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until it fully melts, creating a smooth and creamy sauce.

            - Season the sauce with salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and ground nutmeg if desired. Remove from heat and set it aside to thicken slightly.

              Prepare the Flatbread:

                - Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

                  - Using a brush or your hands, lightly coat both sides of the naan or pita breads with olive oil to promote browning and add flavor.

                    - Arrange the oiled flatbreads on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

                      Assemble the Flatbreads:

                        - Generously spread the creamy garlic Alfredo sauce over each flatbread, making sure to cover the edges for a flavorful bite.

                          - Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese atop the sauce.

                            - Distribute the fresh spinach leaves, sliced mushrooms, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes evenly over the cheese layer, ensuring vibrant colors and flavors throughout.

                              Bake:

                                - Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is beautifully melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbreads are golden brown and crispy.

                                  Garnish and Serve:

                                    - Once baked, carefully remove the flatbreads from the oven and let them cool for a couple of minutes.

                                      - Garnish with fresh basil leaves for a burst of color and flavor, if desired. Cut into slices or wedges and serve warm to enjoy this delicious creation.
