Ingredients

8ounces butternut squash
1 Granny Smith apple
1 red onion
2 flatbreads
4ounces fresh mozzarella
2tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1/4ounce thyme
2ounces spring mix
1tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Halve, peel, and cut the onion into ½-inch wedges. Thinly slice the apple. Toss the butternut squash on a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place in the oven for about 25 minutes, tossing once, until golden brown and soft.
  2. Toss the apples and onion on another baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Place in the oven for about 15 minutes, flipping the apples once, until softened and slightly golden brown.
  3. Meanwhile, tear the mozzarella into small pieces and scatter over the flatbreads. Strip the thyme leaves off the sprigs and scatter the leaves over the mozzarella.
  4. Once the squash, apples, and onion are ready, remove them from the baking sheets and increase oven to 450 degrees. Transfer the flatbreads to one of the baking sheets and top with the squash, apples, and onion. Place in the oven for 5-10 minutes, until the cheese begins to brown and crust begins to crisp.
  5. Meanwhile, place all but 1 teaspoon of the balsamic vinegar in a small pot over medium heat. Simmer until reduced by half and slightly thick, 3-4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Toss the spring mix with the remaining balsamic vinegar, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle the flatbreads with the balsamic reduction, cut into slices, and enjoy!
