Summer is officially here and that means the kiddos are home for breakfast. Every. Single. Day. Don’t get me wrong, they eat breakfast everyday before school, but I always go for the quick and easy options. Muffins, smoothies, cereal, etc. Don’t judge me please, my kids wake up for school at 5:40, and I enjoy waking up with them. Now, I am not 100% awake all the time, but I’m there. They are in high school and I don’t have many of these crazy early mornings left. Insert crying mom here So, while I can, I will sip my coffee and enjoy those extra moments while I can.
When summer hits, the kids (and I) look forward to a “real” breakfast. And yes, I do indeed make them some days, but they are old enough to where they actually enjoy getting involved in the kitchen. Especially when they can make pizza for breakfast 😉

What is naan?
Naan is a type of Indian flatbread that is made from wheat flour, milk, and yogurt. It is popular in South Asia and the Middle East, and it can be served as a main dish or a side dish. Naan is often eaten with curry or other spicy dishes. I also serve naan with hummus. But, our favorite thing to make with naan flatbread is definitely making pizzas! Here are a few of our other favorite Naan Pizza Recipes: Vegetarian Naan Pizzas, Southwest Chicken Naan Pizzas, and Grilled Peach Flatbreads.
