Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion, pepper and garlic for 2 mins. Add the turkey mince and cook over a medium heat for 5 mins until lightly browned.
- Add the tomatoes, squashing them with the back of a fork to break them down, then cook for 5 mins until the tomatoes have reduced and coat the mince.
- Place the flatbreads on a baking tray and divide the turkey mix between them, spreading to the edges. Top with the cheese and cook in the oven for 5-8 mins or until the cheese is melted. Drizzle with the tzatziki to serve.
