Vegetarian Flatbread Pizza with Fresh Rosemary

This vegetarian flatbread pizza recipe is healthy, easy and fast! The pizza works great as a dinner recipe or as an appetizer. This pizza has three types of cheese, an olive oil based sauce and mushrooms and fresh rosemary!

Whenever I am in a hurry, or trying to think of something delicious my mind immediately goes to pizza. As a family we eat A LOT of pizza, at least once a week. Therefore, I have come up with a number of delicious and creative pizza and flatbread recipes over the years. This Vegetarian Flatbread Pizza with Fresh Rosemary is one of my personal favorites. When coming up with this recipe I wanted something (semi) healthy and vegetarian. Also, I wanted something fast and versatile that could work as a meal or as an appetizer.
