Power up on proteins! Add chorizo to your meal with our Protein Boost option. It’s all about thinking outside the delivery box, especially when it comes to pizzas that are incredibly easy to create in a home oven. Special-ticket items make these warm flatbreads shine: the sweet earthiness of our convenient caramelized onions and the edginess of aged white cheddar cheese lend a certain refinement to the palate. Meanwhile, rounds of zucchini and shards of sweet pepper remind us that the gardening season is right around the corner.

Preparation
Mise en place
Preheat the oven to broil. Halve the zucchini lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise. Core and thinly slice the sweet pepper crosswise.
Cook the chorizo
In a large pan, heat a generous drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the chorizo* and cook, breaking up the meat, 4 to 6 min., until browned and cooked through.
Sauté the vegetables
Meanwhile, in a second large pan, heat a generous drizzle of oil on medium. Add the garlic and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant. Add the zucchini and sweet pepper. Sauté, 4 to 6 min., until tender. Add the onions, ½ the spices and S&P; stir well.
Assemble & broil the flatbreads
Arrange the naan on a foil-lined sheet pan. Spread with the tomato sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining spices. Top with the chorizo, vegetables and cheese. Broil, 3 to 5 min., until beginning to brown. Transfer to a cutting board and cut into wedges.
Finish & serve
Pick the basil leaves off the stems. Divide the flatbreads between your plates. Garnish with the basil (tear before adding if desired). Bon appétit!
*Health Canada recommends cooking ground pork to a minimum internal temperature of 71°C.
