BBQ Pulled Beef Flatbread
Leftover Pulled Beef makes for an excellent flatbread. On weeknights – between school and work, I don’t have time to make my own dough. I’ll usually pick up some Naan, whatever the grocery store has out for refrigerated pizza dough or call upon Poppin’ Fresh and his trusty tube o’ dough. However, this time around I pulled out the bread maker and had warm, fresh dough to play with.
I usually make vinegar onions to go with something like this, but I was down to the last nub of the red onion and thought that the salad needed it more than the flatbread. I suppose I could have made them with white onions, but it wouldn’t have been as sweet and definitely would have had a sharper bite to them. Alas, the flatbread was very tasty and went well with the garden salad – which totally benefited from the red onion.
