- Divide the dough into small portions and roll each portion out into a flat circle.
- Sprinkle the spinach and green onion mixture on top of each dough circle.

Notes
To elevate your flatbread, let the dough rest longer for an even softer texture. Consider using leftover filling on a salad or pair flatbreads with a tangy dip.
