Pro Tips for the Perfect Naan Pizza:

1. Pre-Toast Your Naan: Give your naan a quick toast in the oven before adding toppings to ensure a crispy base that won’t get soggy.
2. Room Temperature Tzatziki: Allow your tzatziki to come to room temperature for easier spreading and better flavor distribution across the naan.
3. Even Distribution: Spread your toppings uniformly to ensure every bite contains the perfect balance of flavors. For extra flavor, consider adding Roasted Brussels Sprouts as a topping variation.
4. Watch the Heat: Keep an eye on your pizza as it bakes, as naan can brown quickly due to its thinner nature.
5. Fresh Finish: Add the fresh spinach right after baking to maintain its crisp texture while still allowing it to slightly wilt from the residual heat.
