This flatbread recipe is a light and refreshing one for summer. Created by Alex Caspero of the blog Sugar and Cloth, the Watermelon Feta Flatbread is great for casual entertaining. Quick and easy to put together, the shareable pizza-like appetizer is ideal for girls nights or low key dinner parties.
Perfectly paired with a glass of rosé, this fruity flatbread recipe is both sweet and salty. To make your own at home, you will need packaged pizza dough (such as Original Crust from Trader Joe's), olive oil, garlic, mozzarella cheese, watermelon, basil, feta cheese and a balsamic reduction for drizzling. The key is a thin crust that is chewy and crispy. The toppings are also just sprinkled on, unlike a pizza.

Trend Themes
1. Fruity Flatbreads - Creating more flatbread recipes topped with various fruits could tap into the growing demand for healthy and refreshing foods in the restaurant industry.
2. Cheese Alternatives - Developing cheese alternatives similar to feta cheese that are vegan and plant-based could disrupt the dairy industry and cater to the rising demand for plant-based options.
3. DIY Meal Kits - Providing pre-packaged DIY kits containing all the ingredients to make a flatbread recipe could be a profitable and convenient way for food delivery services to market themselves as healthy alternatives to fast food.
Industry Implications
1. Food and Beverage - Fruit and vegetable companies should collaborate with restaurants, by offering to supply them tropical fruits to use as toppings on their flatbreads, creating refreshing summer meals.
2. Packaging - A packaging company can develop environmentally-friendly and sustainable packaging solutions for meal kits, cementing itself as a sustainable packaging provider in the food industry.
3. Food Delivery Services - Third-party food delivery platforms can create partnerships with restaurants to offer meal kits for customers to make refreshing flatbreads at home, expanding their business offerings beyond traditional restaurant delivery services.
