Portuguese Flatbread Pizza – Pizza Portuguesa #SundaySupper

Portuguese Flatbread Pizza – Pizza Portuguesa is an amazing combination of flavors. 

I have a confession to make. It could be seen as a bit of an obsession. And I am afraid I have passed this gene down to my children. It’s true, our entire family is obsessed with pizza. Traditional, Chicago, deep dish, flatbread, grilled, it doesn’t matter to us. Bring on the pizza and we are happy campers!

Imagine how excited we are to hear it is National Pizza Month. In our home, that means we are enjoying pizza every night of the week, or so one can dream. There is a reason I have been called the Flatbread Pizza Queen once or twice. My repertoire of Beef and Avocado Flatbread Pizza, Arugula Tomato and Beans Flatbread Pizza, Tomato Goat Cheese and Arugula Flatbread Pizza, Roasted Brussels Sprouts Pizza,  Strawberry Basil Goat Cheese Flatbread Pizza, Asparagus Chicken Flatbread  Pizza, Roasted Tomato and Broccoli Rabe Flatbread Pizza, Halloween Ghost Flatbread Pizza, Strawberry and Mozzarella Flatbread Pizza,  Grilled Pineapple Prosciutto Pizza, Arugula Prosciutto Flatbread Pizza. Well you get the point, I can make a pizza out of almost any ingredient and it becomes a superstar.

But I have been holding out on you. I’m sorry, but it’s true. I have a pizza up my sleeve that I have not shared with you. It is so delicious and packed with flavor and…. so Portuguese. It is a traditional Portuguese Pizza or Pizza Portuguesa. Of course it involves some of my favorite things: eggs, prosciutto, olives, olive oil, garlic and flatbread. Can you imagine a tastier combination? You know I tend to believe Portuguese flavors are the bomb.

The best wine to pair with this over-the-top Portuguese Pizza has whispers of honeysuckle, juicy peach and ripe citrus notes to match the pizzas robust flavors. You must try a favorite of mine, Gallo Family Riesling. I happen to think it is a match made in heaven but Ron will disagree with me and insist that this Portuguese Pizza must be paired with the full-bodied Gallo Family Merlot. I say, try them both! We all know who you will agree with in the end… okay I have to admit, I was the Gallo Family Merlot won!
