How to Make Ham and Cheese Flatbread?
I know I say this a bunch, but once again, this recipe is easy peasy to make. All you have to do is a few simple steps, and then you will be enjoying your a warm and cheesy meal.
First, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. and then dice your ham, peppers, and onions.
Go ahead and set them aside in a bowl. Next, take a large sheet pan or silicone baking mat and place the flatbread on the pan.
Then, evenly spread the ranch dressing onto the bread using a wooden spoon.
Afterward, layer the ham, and vegetables, making sure to cover almost all the flatbread.
The following step is to sprinkle the mozzarella cheese over the meat and veggies.
With the toppings in place, pop the flatbread into your preheated oven for about 15 minutes or until all the cheese is melted.
Last, remove the finished dish from the oven and slice it into four equal servings.
That’s it, your cheesy ham flatbread is done! Kim and I hope you enjoy the appetizer and wish you all the best 🙂
If for some reason, you have some cheesy flatbread leftover, it can be stored for up to 3 days in your fridge in a sealed container.

We are having this for dinner with a salad. I’m trying guacamole ranch instead, adding some grape tomatoes. Nice change from our typical ham and veggie with tomato sauce/mozarella pizza night. Good way to use up holiday leftover ham!
Those sound like great additions, especially the guacamole ranch! We hope you enjoy. Have a wonderful evening and thanks for coming back to comment! 🙂
