Naan bread is a favorite of mine - add in marinara sauce, cheese, fresh veggies, a bit of raspberry balsamic - sign me up! The first time I made this, the raspberry happened by accident because it was all I had on hand… and I never went back.

  2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, a silicon baking mat, or spray with cooking spray.
