Customize It Instructions

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. 

  • If using diced chicken breasts, pat dry. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes.

  • If using steak strips, pat dry, coarsely chop, then separate pieces. Stir occasionally until steak reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Rest, 3 minutes.

  • Add protein to meal as desired.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Place butternut squash in a microwave-safe bowl. Top with 2 tsp. olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper.

    Microwave uncovered until tender, 5-8 minutes.

    Tear Gouda into small pieces.

    While butternut squash heats, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Make the Topping

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add onions to hot pan and stir often until tender, 4-6 minutes.

    Add microwaved butternut squash and garlic salt. Stir until thoroughly combined, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in 1 Tbsp. water and fig preserves until coated.

    While topping cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Toast the Flatbreads

    Place flatbreads on prepared baking sheet, flat-side up.

    Place baking sheet under hot broiler. Broil until beginning to brown around edges, 1-2 minutes.

    Don't text and broil! Keep an eye on oven as flatbreads may burn easily under broiler.

    Carefully flip flatbreads. Top evenly with Gouda pieces and mozzarella.

    Broil again under hot broiler until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes.
