Description

Flat out fun! These warm rounds of naan bread are just begging to be picked up and bitten into, and with this Italian battalion of toppings, you’ll be happy to oblige. Ground beef browns up nicely in a saucepan, meantime, you’ll blend ricotta, heavy cream and garlic for a cheesy layer, and fling on roasted pepper like punctuation marks. A balsamic-splashed curly leaf lettuce salad sasses up the side.
