What it is
Safeway Select Flatbread is a pre-made baked dough product. It is typically thin and round or oval in shape. This flatbread is designed for convenience, offering a ready-to-eat base or accompaniment for various meals. It is often made with simple ingredients like flour, water, yeast, and salt, resulting in a soft yet slightly chewy texture. The product is usually found in the bakery or deli section of a grocery store.
How people cook with it
This versatile flatbread can be used as a quick meal solution or an appetizer.
- As a pizza base
- For dipping
- As a sandwich wrap
- With spreads
To enjoy Safeway Select Flatbread, you can warm it slightly before serving. It can be heated in an oven, toaster oven, or even a dry skillet for a few minutes until it is warm and pliable. If using it as a pizza base, add your favorite toppings and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbly. It also works well torn into pieces for dipping into hummus, baba ghanoush, or other dips. For a quick lunch, spread it with cream cheese, herbs, or other savory toppings.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to traditional bread, flatbread is generally thinner and has a less yeasty flavor. It lacks the thick crust and airy interior of a baguette or sourdough. Its pliability makes it suitable for wrapping ingredients, unlike a more rigid bread.

How to keep the rest
After opening the package, it is best to store any remaining flatbread in an airtight container or resealable bag. This will help to maintain its freshness and prevent it from drying out. Keep it at room temperature for short-term storage or refrigerate it for longer preservation.
