How many times have you meant to grab something to eat or forgot to get something ready for the kids? I know I have done that A LOT! It’s really easy to grab something like a frozen pizza, but that can be full of tons of preservatives and other artificial ingredients! The Crunchy family has been trying to eat a lot better lately, so I have been coming up with quick meal ideas like this quick naan pizza recipe! It takes literally less than a minute to put together, and it’s yummy!

Since moving to Minneapolis, I have been able to try a few new stores that I haven’t been around before. One that I have already fallen in love with is Trader Joe’s! They have great natural foods at prices that won’t break the bank. That’s where we got this delicious garlic naan bread to make this pizza recipe! Most of their ingredients have very few artificial colors or flavors in them. I don’t know about you, but I like being able to read the ingredients on the back of the label!

Don’t have a Trader Joe’s near you? Don’t fret! You can find naan bread near the flat bread in most regular stores! To make it garlic naan bread just dust it with a little garlic powder!

Enough of my jabbering, here’s how to make this great (and easy) naan pizza recipe! Enjoy!

Italian Bread with Oregano Recipe

I have a great relationship with my bread maker because it lets me make lots of yummy breads, that I normally would spend $4 bucks a loaf on. This recipe is my favorite to make when I make spaghetti, but it will go well with almost any Italian dish! Plus it’s super easy to make!

Ingredients

  • Water (80-90 degrees) 1 1/2 cups
  • Unsalted butter or margarine 3 T
  • Sugar 1 T
  • Dry Skim Milk Powder 3 T
  • Salt 1 1/4t
  • Bread Flour 4 cups
  • Bread Machine Yeast 1 1/2 t
  • 1-2 T of oregano to taste
Instructions
Yields a 2lb loaf
Make sure to add the ingredients into your bread machine in the order listed, last one added being the Bread Machine Yeast.
I use a themometer to measure the temperature of the water because water too hot will kill the yeast and your bread won’t rise.
As the bread machine is mixing, I start adding the oregano so it’s mixed throughout the loaf.
I also watch to make sure that the loaf is mixing completely. If it’s not picking up all the flour, add more water 1T at a time.
If it’s sticking to the sides sprinkle some more flour on it.
You can add more or less oregano to get that rich flavor that you want. I tend to be a little heavy handed on the oregano because I love it’s zesty flavor!
Make sure to leave your bread machine undisturbed while it bakes, so your bread won’t fall.
Once it’s done, pull it out and enjoy!
