    I'd like to share something to try if you're like me and MUST mess with things to make them healthier:

    Add a thawed box of frozen spinach to the mix ... and make 7 or 8 instead of 6. Of course you might have to adjust the liquid, depending on the wetness of the spinach. AND you might run into trouble rolling it. I make my batter thin so that they're poured into a non-stick pan like a crepe (then flipped), which works out well.

    Adding grated zucchini instead of (or as well as) spinach is another option. Also works well with rice flour for anyone who is gluten intolerant.

    Great suggestions! I will have to pick up some frozen spinach now!

    These were great, thank you! I made them with spelt flour and topped them with a little olive oil and grated Parmesan tonight as an alternative to garlic bread ... Yummy!

    I just calculated the weight watchers points in case anyone is interested (as I use both sites) and its 2 points per (assuming the 6 flatbread servings). Can't wait to try, husband is very interested too, but have a question please:

    When you put them in the oven do you put it on a baking sheet? Directly on the oven rack? Do you use the middle level rack? Do you turn them halfway? I know, I know, a lot of questions, but never made flatbread before!

    Thanks in advance!

    I divided the dough into 6 and rolled it out, it's quite wet so you have to put them on a baking sheet (floured, or onto baking parchment so they don't stick). I didn't need to turn them.

    Looks easy enough. My inner breadaholic is rejoicing at the very idea.
