When the weather gets warm, I try to serve meals that don’t require heating up the kitchen. This California Avocado and Turkey Flat Bread is a perfect snack, lunch or colorful appetizer for a 4th of July party! It’s like a no-bake avocado pizza!
Slice some cold turkey breast and use small cookie cutters to make the turkey stars.
Cut open a ripe California avocado, remove the pit, cut into quarters and peel off the skin.
Mash the avocado flesh and spread on top of a piece of Mediterranean flat bread. Sprinkle with your favorite seasoning. 
Dress up your “avocado and turkey pizza” with some tangy pickled beets and herbed feta cheese!
Use a pizza cutter to slice wedges for serving.
I love black olives…so I added some to mine! What a fun lunch on a hot day!
Can you think of other ways to top these fun no-bake avocado pizzas? Stay tuned…I have a feeling we’ll be making these again!

How about adding some heirloom tomato when they come into season? Or cherry tomatoes now? Happy 4th, Mimi –

This is a cute idea for kids too! If I can find allergy-friendly flatbread then I’m set!

Thanks, Kathryn! My friend Colette Martin wrote a book about baking allergen-free. Maybe you could bake your own! http://www.learningtoeatallergyfree.com/p/about-book.html

When I first saw the picture, I thought I was looking at star-shaped cut outs of dough. I’m glad to find out that it’s really just turkey.
I think kids would find this really appetizing.
This recipe really appealed to me because it doesn’t require cooking! It’s been so hot lately, that the last thing I want to do is to turn on my oven and then eat hot foods.
I think the turkey would go well with some dried cranberries as a topping. I’ll give it a try next time.
