Garlic Naan? Tzatziki chicken and veggie naan pizza? Yes, please! If you’re like me, you probably have a pack of naan sitting in your kitchen, wondering when it’s time to shine will come. Well, today is the day!
This soft, chewy bread is the ultimate food chameleon—ready to be slathered, topped, wrapped, or even turned into a full-on feast. Here are 11 ridiculously tasty ways to use naan that will make your taste buds very happy.
1. Garlic Butter Naan Pizza
If garlic bread and pizza had a baby, it would be this beauty. Spread a generous layer of garlic butter over warm naan, sprinkle with shredded mozzarella, and bake until it’s golden and bubbly.
For an extra kick, add some chili flakes or a drizzle of honey. Who needs takeout when you’ve got this in your arsenal?
2. Tzatziki Chicken and Veggie Naan Pizza
Greek dinner recipes never fail me, and this one is no exception. Load your naan with grilled chicken, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, red onions, and feta cheese.
Then, drizzle (or drench—I won’t judge) with tzatziki sauce. It’s fresh, zesty, and just messy enough to be fun.
3. Naan Breakfast Wrap
Scramble some eggs, toss in crispy bacon or sautéed veggies, and wrap it all up in warm naan. A little hot sauce? Yes. Some melty cheese? Always. Breakfast burritos are great, but naan wraps are on another level.
4. Spicy Naan Nachos
Tired of the usual tortilla chips? Cut naan into triangles, toast them until crispy, and load them with melted cheese, black beans, jalapeños, and salsa.
Trust me, these naan nachos will disappear faster than you can say “pass the guac.”
5. Naan Chicken Shawarma Wrap
Marinate chicken in a blend of spices (think cumin, paprika, and garlic), grill it to perfection, then tuck it into naan with crunchy lettuce, pickled onions, and a good dollop of tahini sauce. Middle Eastern street food, right in your kitchen.
6. Caprese Naan Flatbread
Nothing screams “classy but easy” like a Caprese naan flatbread. Spread pesto over naan, add fresh mozzarella slices, juicy tomatoes, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. It’s light, fresh, and totally Pinterest-worthy.
7. Buffalo Chicken Naan Pizza
If you love spicy, saucy goodness, you’ll be obsessed with this. Toss shredded chicken in buffalo sauce, spread it over naan with ranch or blue cheese dressing, and bake.
It’s the kind of meal that makes you want to high-five yourself.
8. Garlic Naan Grilled Cheese
Grilled cheese, but make it fancy. Slather garlic butter on naan, stuff it with your favorite cheese, and toast until crispy and gooey.
Add some caramelized onions or crispy bacon for a chef’s kiss moment.
9. Naan Avocado Toast
Upgrade your basic avocado toast by using naan instead of plain ol’ bread. Mash up some avocado, season it with salt, pepper, and lemon juice, and top with poached eggs, feta, or everything bagel seasoning. Breakfast just got an upgrade!
10. Peanut Butter and Banana Naan
Sweet naan recipes? Oh yes. Spread peanut butter over warm naan, top with banana slices, and drizzle with honey or a sprinkle of cinnamon. It’s like a hug for your soul.
11. BBQ Pulled Pork Naan Tacos
Who said naan can’t be a taco? Load it up with juicy pulled pork, crunchy slaw, and a good drizzle of BBQ sauce. Fold it, bite into it, and thank me later.
Conclusion
So, what’s stopping you? Grab that pack of naan and turn it into something amazing. Whether you’re craving something cheesy, spicy, or sweet, there’s a naan recipe for every mood. Happy cooking (and happy pinning
