Ingredients
  

  • 16 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced ¼-inch thick
  • 2 tablespoons minced shallots (about 1 small shallot)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 naan breads or Gluten Free Flatbreads
  • 4-8 tablespoons mascarpone cheese
  • 4 ounces fresh goat cheese
  • 4 cups baby arugula
  • 1 teaspoon truffle oil or extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • Parmigiano Reggiano, shaved with a vegetable peeler
  • 4 fried or poached eggs (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Toss the mushrooms, shallots, garlic, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar directly on the baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper before spreading out into an even layer. Roast for 20-22 minutes, stirring midway, until the mushrooms are golden and tender.
  • Increase the oven temperature to 425°F. Arrange the flatbreads on another baking sheet and bake for 6-10 minutes, flipping halfway, until they're slightly crisp.
  • Spread 1-2 tablespoons of mascarpone cheese over each flatbread. Evenly divide the roasted mushrooms on top and crumble goat cheese over each.
  • Return the flatbreads to the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes, just until the goat cheese melts slightly and the flatbread edges crisp up.
  • While the flatbreads bake, whisk the truffle oil and balsamic vinegar with a dash of salt and pepper. Toss with arugula.
  • Top each flatbread pizza with the dressed arugula and shave fresh Parmigiano Reggiano over the top. If desired, finish with a fried or poached egg on each flatbread. Slice and serve immediately.
