Pizza dough is a great ingredient to have on hand. It can be used for so much more than the traditional tomato sauce and cheese pizza.
Take this recipe for example: the dough turns into flatbread when topped with a mixture of fresh thyme, leeks, and potatoes. A sprinkle of Gruyere provides a subtle richness. Serve with a green salad and a glass of red wine and let the weekend begin!

Ingredients
1 1-pound package refrigerated pizza dough
Cornmeal for the pan
2 small leeks (white and light green parts), halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
2 medium Red Bliss potatoes, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme

1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated Gruyère
1 5-ounce package mixed greens

- Combine the leeks, potatoes, thyme, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a large bowl. Scatter the potato mixture over the dough and sprinkle with the Gruyère.
