I am loving flat breads, so many ways to create a delicious meal without breaking a sweat. 


These green onion flat breads really store well in an airtight container in the fridge. And warm up really well either on the pan or microwave. So pillowy soft and fluffy on the inside yet softly crunchy on the outside


Serve with raita, curry or even chutney as a breakfast option


I devoured mine with this delicious onion raita that was the perfect match
