Cranberry, Brie and Turkey Pizza

Who always has leftover Thanksgiving food? I know I do. Who gets tired of the same old reheated food? Me, that's who. Have you tried using your leftovers for pizza? There are a LOT of traditional Thanksgiving foods out there, right? But how many would make it on to a pizza? So when I was trying to come up with a combo I thought would be good...turkey and cranberry sauce rang my bell! Of course you need cheese on a pizza, so Brie was the natural choice for this. Let me tell you guys....this is fantastic! The cranberry sauce with it's tartness and the Brie is so creamy...it really dresses up the turkey. All of this on top of a delicious Mama Mary's Flatbread pizza crust. I used my homemade cranberry sauce but if you want, store bought works, too. If you're a fruit/meat person, you're going to love this. The thing I love most about Mama Mary's Flatbreads is that they come 4 to pack. So if you've got LOTS of Thanksgiving leftovers, let people get creative with their toppings! Go crazy! You've got to think outside of the pizza box, so to speak. That's what makes food fun! Try this pizza for a snack or it would work great as an appetizer, too.
