Have you ever tried entertaining during a weekday or even at the end of a busy week? I am sure we all have done that at some point in our lives. At times like these I have always looked for recipes that can be put together very quickly. Something that doesn’t involve too much prep or too many steps in cooking but still tastes great.

I developed these naan pizzette recipe keeping just that in mind and these are great for entertainment or for a quick snack on a busy weekday evening. You put a few store bought ingredients together and get this delicious tasting appetizer. These can be made with a normal size naan as well but I used these mini naans to make something that was perfect for entertaining!
