Balsamic Strawberry Flatbread makes a good snack, light lunch, or quick appetizer. It’s a mix of sweet, creamy, and crisp in every bite. You can make this strawberry naan in minutes, and it looks nice enough for guests, too.
I like to have this for a late breakfast or light lunch. A green salad or cucumber salad, garlic parmesan chicken kabobs, and cake pops from cake mix go wonderfully with it.
Balsamic Strawberry Flatbread
We like this flatbread because it’s quick and easy, but still feels special. It’s sweet, tangy, crunchy, and satisfying. While store-bought naan is convenient, homemade naan is simple to make and fun to make with kids.
This Balsamic Strawberry Flatbread offers a mix of nutrients. Strawberries give you vitamin C and fiber. Greek yogurt adds protein and calcium. The seeds or nuts bring healthy fats. Goat cheese gives extra protein and a bit of tang. Balsamic adds flavor without a lot of calories. It’s a lighter option that still fills you up.

- Flatbread, naan, or pita.
- Fig jam. If you don’t have fig jam, try honey or apricot jam for a similar sweetness.
- Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt can be swapped with whipped
cream cheese or ricotta. - Strawberries. Strawberries can be replaced with sliced peaches or blueberries.
- goat cheese, crumbled. If goat cheese isn’t your thing, use feta or even a sprinkle of shaved parmesan.
- Sunflower seeds. Sunflower seeds add crunch, but you can use chopped walnuts, almonds, or even pumpkin seeds.
- Balsamic reduction. You can make your own balsamic reduction by simmering balsamic vinegar until it thickens.
- Mint leaves. Fresh mint or basil adds a fresh finish, but arugula or microgreens work too.
For a meal, you may want to add chopped cooked chicken or prosciutto to your Balsamic Strawberry Flatbread.
