Mediterranean Flatbread with Feta & Veggies – Easy Weeknight Recipe

Make this Mediterranean flatbread with feta, olives, artichokes, and mozzarella on premade crust. It’s an easy, cheesy appetizer or light dinner!

Pizza is delicious year-round, but in warmer months, I want something lighter. That’s when I turn to this Mediterranean flatbread. It’s loaded with fresh veggies, briny olives, and two types of cheese (feta and mozzarella) on a premade crust. Easy, colorful, and full of flavor.

Why You’ll Love This Mediterranean Flatbread

• It’s fresh and flavorful:
  This flatbread is packed with veggies like bell pepper, red onion, kalamata olives, and tangy feta — like a Greek salad on warm, cheesy bread.
• It’s quick and easy:
  You can make it in under 30 minutes using premade crust and your favorite pizza sauce. It’s perfect for busy weeknights or when you want something satisfying without the fuss.
• It’s veggie-loaded and meatless:
  Instead of piling on meat and extra cheese, this flatbread is full of colorful vegetables and two cheeses — light, satisfying, and vegetarian-friendly.

Ingredient Notes & Variations

Pizza Crust

• Store-bought cooked pizza crust - It bakes up fast and lets the fresh toppings really shine.
• You’re welcome to use your favorite homemade pizza dough - I have a great recipe with a stand mixer and one without. I recommend partially baking it first so the vegetables don’t overcook.

Cheese

• Mozzarella melts smoothly and helps hold the toppings in place.
• Feta adds that signature salty, tangy Mediterranean flavor.

Toppings

• Fresh veggies: green bell pepper and red onion add crunch and brightness
• Cooked veggies: roasted red bell pepper adds sweetness and a tender, meaty texture
• Briny flavor: kalamata olives and marinated artichokes bring bold, salty depth

Variations

• Use a different base: Flatbread, naan, or even pita bread all work well in place of premade pizza crust. Just adjust the baking time as needed.
• Add protein: Want to make it more filling? Add sliced grilled chicken or chickpeas - both pair well with the Mediterranean flavors.
• Switch up the veggies: Try cherry tomatoes, spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, or artichokes packed in water if that’s what you have on hand.

How to Make Mediterranean Flatbread

1. Preheat the oven to 425°F. If using a thin flatbread, reduce to 400°F.
2. Spread a thin layer of pizza sauce over the cooked crust or flatbread.
3. Add shredded mozzarella, covering the surface evenly.
4. Layer on the veggies — bell pepper, red onion, olives, artichokes, and roasted red pepper.
5. Sprinkle crumbled feta over the top.
6. Bake for 8–10 minutes, until the cheese is melted and the edges are lightly golden. The veggies should still be crisp.

Tips for Success

• Using homemade dough? Par-bake it at 425 (or 450°F) for 6 to 8 minutes before adding toppings. This helps prevent soggy crust and overcooked veggies.
• Go easy on the pizza sauce. A thin, even layer is best — too much can make the crust soggy.
• Skip fresh tomatoes. For extra tomato flavor, use sun-dried tomatoes instead. Fresh ones release too much water and can affect the texture.
• Reheat gently. Warm leftovers just until the cheese melts. Overheating can make the crust tough and the veggies mushy.
