This Rich And Savory Trader Joe's Flatbread Is A Hidden Gem For Fast, Fancy Dinners
Trader Joe's can help upgrade weeknight dinners with ready-made foods. While it can take some time to whip up a mushroom pizza from scratch, Trader Joe's has packaged a flavorful dish that can be baked and served in under 10 minutes — all while having you feeling a bit bougie. Hailing from Italy, Trader Joe's Mushroom & Black Truffle Flatbread has netizens raving. Not to mention that for $5.49, the ready-to-bake product also gives you a bite of the good life without breaking the bank.
Instead of having to forage wild mushrooms yourself or make fresh dough, this flatbread presents both wild mushrooms and rare truffles perched on top of a handmade crust. The assembly is made complete with a topping of mozzarella. The savory and decadent flatbread can be gobbled up on its own or served with a salad, and enjoyed with a glass of wine. Just be warned, some customers online have admitted that once this flatbread is sampled, it is difficult to stop eating and very possible to devour the entire thing in one go.
"This is one of my top fav items from Trader Joe's for years," gushed one flatbread fan on Reddit. "This is straight up one of their best frozen products," added another Redditor. Truffle fans are sure to love this flabread, too.
As good as any restaurant
Looks may be deceiving upon opening the package, according to one review on TikTok, but hopeful diners will be comforted by the truffle aroma that teases what is to come. Once cooked, the melted mozzarella ties the toppings and crust together, and the chewy texture of the crispy crust drives the complex flavor of Trader Joe's Mushroom & Black Truffle Flatbread home. It can be served as a satisfying main dish or be sliced and presented as an appetizer for dinner guests.
Trader Joe's Mushroom & Black Truffle Flatbread doesn't require added culinary touches, but pieces can be gussied up with extra ingredients. Some fans on Reddit shared that have added extra mushrooms, arugula, bacon, artichoke hearts, onions, hot honey, or even Italian seasonings to the flatbread before serving. Otherwise, dial up the truffle flavor by serving pieces with a black truffle infused olive oil for dipping, and plate the flatbread with an arugula and chevre salad for a meal that is worthy of any restaurant's menu. Grab an earthy pinot noir or an oaky chardonnay, and this weeknight meal will feel even fancier.
