STORY BEHIND THE DISH
The last night on my Seattle trip I stayed at the Marriott by the airport. At the beautiful lounge sitting by the fire with a glass of wine I enjoyed a delicious flat bread. This is the closest I have come to recreating that delicious dish.

MODIFICATIONS 
There are many things that can be added or removed from this recipe, just like toppings on a pizza. Other delicious toppings would be artichoke hearts, capers, Mozzarella cheese, or even some prosciutto would add a nice flavor.
