What a great weekend it was! Our Sunday night dinner was the icing on the cake. This is a total copycat recipe from Trio, a fantastic restaurant in Greenville, SC. A restaurant that I frequented maybe a little too much in college. A restaurant that describes the, um, softness and roundness of my face after my freshman year.
Last night I used naan to make individual pizzas for us and I think I'll always choose this method -- it is the most similar crust to the brick oven crust that you get at Trio.
Smoked Salmon Pizza
Naan bread (available in my grocery store's bread section; Trader Joes has great naan too)
Smoked salmon bits
Granny Smith apple, sliced thinly
Brie cheese wedge
Red onion, diced
Capers, drained
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Drizzle a little olive oil on each piece of naan and use a pastry brush to spread it around. Top each crust with some slices of brie, the apple wedges, the smoked salmon bits. Sprinkle on the diced red onion and capers. Top with a few more slices of brie. Bake for approximately 20 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly. Let cool slightly before serving.
I truly can't describe how unique the flavors are of this pizza. It's not your traditional pepperoni pie, but if you are an adventurous eater, I bet you'll love it!
YUM. I want this right now.

ReplyDeleteBrie and smoked salmon... two of my favorite things! I definitely need to try out this recipe!
ReplyDeleteThat pizza looks so amazing!
ReplyDeleteYum- I love anything with brie! I love naan bread- it's so good for dipping and for making mini pizzas!
ReplyDeleteThat looks delish--I'm going to have to make it. I always have Naan in my freezer--perfect pizza base!
ReplyDeleteO. M. G. Seriously, girl. Quit your day job and open a restaurant.
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing!!! Naan is my go to for making individual pizzas. Cannot wait to try this one!
ReplyDeleteHow delicious! This recipe reminds me of a wonderful sandwich I used to get in Charlottesville when I lived there - at Foods of All Nations. Brie, green apple, ham or smoked salmon - toasted together into deliciousness.
ReplyDeleteCannot deny that flavor. Great idea on the Naan...
XOX
We used Naan to make flatbread pizzas last night too! I need to email you a recap of our weekend! We took a lot if your suggestions!! Glad you had a nice one as well!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks delicious, April! Congrats on being able to replicate your favorite pizza! I consider myself lucky that I live near my favorite pizza place, but if ever I find myself moving away, I'll make sure to arm myself with the knowledge of how to make my favorite pizzas... or make sure that there's a store at where I'm heading. Haha!
