To prepare, simply remove the flatbread from its packaging. You can heat it in an oven, toaster oven, or even a skillet. For best results, preheat your oven or toaster oven. Place the flatbread directly on the rack or a baking sheet and heat until it is warmed through and slightly crisped. If adding toppings, do so after the initial warming or during the last few minutes of heating, depending on the ingredients. Avoid overheating, which can make it too brittle.
