Similar to a way-too-advanced-for-us yoga class, this show-stopping meal is all about balance. Caramelized onions add a sweet complexity that pairs beautifully with fontina's creamy texture and distinctive, grassy aroma. We may never be able to hold a tree pose, but this flatbread has us feeling at peace with the world. Namaste. Tip: Here's a super-easy way to remove thyme leaves from stem. Just pinch the top and run your fingers down the stem. Presto! The leaves should just fall off.

Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat with 2 tsp. olive oil. If cooking diced chicken, pat dry, season all over with ¼ tsp. salt and ¼ tsp. pepper. Stir occasionally until chicken reaches minimum internal temperature, 5-7 minutes. If using flank steak, separate, pat dry, and season all over with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir occasionally until no pink remains, and steak strips reach a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 4-6 minutes. Add to flatbread as desired.
