Romesco Sauce:
* 1/3 c. canned fire-roasted tomatoes, drained

* 1 tsp. roasted garlic (home roasted or purchased)
* 3 Tbsp. slivered almonds, toasted

Pizza:

* 4 large portabella mushrooms, grilled and sliced
* red pepper flakes, to taste
* fresh basil leaves, sliced, optional
Romesco Sauce:
1. Place all ingredients in a blender and purée. Set aside.
Pizzas:
2. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place flatbreads on 2 large cookie sheets sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 5 to 7 min. Remove from oven and top each flatbread with 1/4 of the romesco sauce.
3. Reset oven to 375°F. In a bowl, toss Mozzarella and Smoked Gouda together. Sprinkle the cheese, divided equally, over the 4 flatbreads. Top each with mushroom slices and sprinkle with red pepper flakes. Bake until cheese melts and crusts crisp, about 12 min. Sprinkle pizzas with fresh basil, if desired.
