• 1/2 cup shredded provolone cheese
• 1/2 cup sliced dill pickles
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced red onion
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1/3 cup ranch dressing
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tablespoon fresh chopped dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
• 1 tablespoon milk

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

3. Sprinkle mozzarella and provolone evenly over both flatbreads.

4. Distribute sliced pickles and red onion over the cheese. Sprinkle with oregano and crushed red pepper flakes if using.
