Ingredients
  

1 large store-bought or homemade flatbread

1 cup fresh ricotta cheese

2 ripe peaches, sliced thin

2 tablespoons honey (plus extra for drizzling)

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

1 cup arugula or mixed greens

1 tablespoon olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Balsamic glaze (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ricotta: In a small bowl, mix the ricotta cheese with honey, lemon juice, thyme, salt, and pepper. Adjust sweetness based on your preference by adding more or less honey.

    Grill the Flatbread: Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the flatbread on the grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, until grill marks appear and it becomes crispy.

      Add Peaches: During the last minute of grilling, place the peach slices on top of the flatbread to warm them slightly.

        Assemble: Once the flatbread is grilled, remove it from the heat. Spread the honey-lemon ricotta mixture evenly over the flatbread.

          Add Greens: Top the ricotta with arugula or mixed greens. Drizzle with olive oil, and add a sprinkle of salt and pepper.

            Finish and Serve: Drizzle a little extra honey and balsamic glaze (if using) over the top, slice into pieces, and serve warm as an appetizer or a light meal.
