Nutty Carrot Flatbread, and naturally gluten free.

I found this recipe in the current issue of Cooking Light.

Nutty Carrot Flatbread

I haven't tried it yet, but I'm looking forward to giving it a whirl this coming weekend when I have some time.

 

Has anyone tried this?

That looks really good...do you have to store leftover in fridge?

I would think so.

I'll probably freeze them and thaw one at a time, since I'm the only one in the house who will eat them.

I did make it and it was very good - however, it contains almonds and seeds, which are on my migraine "No-No" list of foods.  It did give me a headache and I only had one piece, so the rest went in the trash.

Very sad :-(

@house_cat Oh that is sad that you couldn't eat it...could you try using say flax and walnuts.
