  • 1 cup (250 mL) crumbled goat cheese
  • 2 Tbsp (30 mL) balsamic glaze

Directions

Notes

  • Flatbreads can be thick pitas, naan, or small prepared pizza crusts, keep frozen and ready to “dress up” for snacking, meals and sharing.
  • A 19 oz (540 mL) can of lentils, drained and rinsed, yields 2 cups (500 mL) cooked lentils. To cook your own, check out our website for more info!
