Cooking Guidelines

To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures:

  • Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) |
  • Seafood 145° F |
  • Chicken 165° F |
  • Ground Beef 160° F |
  • Ground Turkey 165° F |
  • Ground Pork 160° F

Customize It Instructions

  • If using 16 oz. Italian sausage, follow same instructions as 8 oz., working in batches if necessary. You may have leftover topping.

  • 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.

  1. 1

    Start the Flatbreads

    Place flatbreads on prepared baking sheet flat-side up.

    Bake in hot oven until lightly browned, 8-10 minutes.

    While flatbreads bake, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Cook the Italian Sausage

    Remove Italian sausage from casing, if necessary.

    Place a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add sausage to hot pan. Break up meat until no pink remains and sausage reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While sausage cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Prepare Tomato and Make Sauce

    Core tomato and cut into 1/4" dice.

    In a microwave-safe bowl, combine cream cheese, pesto (reserve 1 tsp. for arugula), half the garlic and parsley seasoning (reserve remaining for arugula), and 1 Tbsp. water.

    Microwave uncovered until cream cheese is melted, 30-60 seconds.

    Carefully remove from microwave. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Flatbreads

    After 8-10 minutes, carefully remove sheet from oven. Flip flatbreads. Sheet and flatbreads will be hot! Use a utensil.

    Evenly top with sauce, sausage, then shredded cheese. Sheet will be hot! Use caution.

  5. 5

    Finish Flatbreads, Dress Arugula, and Finish Dish

    Bake in hot oven until flatbread edges are browned and cheese is melted, 4-6 minutes.

    While flatbreads bake, in a mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, arugula, remaining garlic and parsley seasoning, and remaining pesto. Set aside.

    Carefully remove sheet from oven.
