Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Put the flatbreads on a baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake until lightly browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside on the baking sheet. Leave the oven on.
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat.
- To a mixing bowl, add the shrimp, olive oil, honey, adobo, salt, chili powder, garlic, some pepper and half of the lime juice. Toss to combine. Saute the shrimp in the hot skillet until cooked through, about 3 minutes.
- Layer 3 ounces of the Monterey Jack on each flatbread, then divide the pineapple and shrimp between each. Top with a sprinkle of the remaining Monterey Jack. Bake until the cheese melts and begins to brown, about 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the sour cream, cumin, avocado and remaining lime juice to the bowl of a food processor fitted with a blade attachment or a blender. Process until smooth.
- Garnish the flatbreads with the feta, a generous drizzle of the avocado-cream mixture and the cilantro. Move the flatbreads to a cutting board, cut into wedges and enjoy.
GRILLED PINEAPPLE AND PROSCIUTTO FLATBREAD
Pairing pineapple with ham on a pizza is very controversial, but what's not controversial, and actually a proven scientific fact, is that sweet pineapple pairs perfectly with the salty, savory flavor of ham on flatbread. Since there's no sauce or cheese involved, this is the perfect way to enjoy this pairing without having to worry about an angry mob of food bloggers with torches and pitchforks outside your house.

Steps:
- To make the dough, combine warm water, 1/2 cup of flour, and yeast to a mixing bowl. Use a whisk to mix everything into a smooth batter. Cover bowl with a towel and let sit for 30 minutes.
- Add olive oil, salt, and remaining flour to the bowl, and stir with a spoon or fork until the mixture comes together to form a shaggy ball of dough.
- Transfer everything to a work surface and knead until the dough just starts to become elastic, about 2 minutes.
- Place dough in a lightly oiled zip-top bag. Press out most of the air, seal, and place in the refrigerator for 8 hours, or overnight.
- The next day, take the bag of dough out of the fridge, and leave out at room temperature until it roughly doubles in size, about 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, preheat a charcoal grill until coals are white and ashy. Quarter your peeled and cored pineapple and trim out the tough, fibrous core in the center.
- Grill pineapple round-side down over hot coals until heated through, and fairly well charred, about 3 minutes; flip and continue to grill on the cored side until charred, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve until needed.
- Once dough has doubled, remove from bag and divide into 4 portions. Form each portion into a ball and use a rolling pin to roll dough into an oval, or circle about an 1/8-inch thick.
- Place dough over hot coals, and grill until dough is cooked through, and about half the surface area is slightly charred, about 2 minutes per side.
- Remove from grill and top each warm flatbread with a drizzle of olive oil. Top with prosciutto, thin slices of grilled pineapple, tarragon leaves, and freshly ground black pepper. Finish with another small drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of flaky sea salt.

Tips:
- Choose the right flatbread: Look for a thin, crispy flatbread that will hold up to the toppings.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the flatbread will taste.
- Don't overcrowd the flatbread: Too many toppings will make the flatbread soggy.
- Bake the flatbread at a high temperature: This will help to create a crispy crust.
- Serve the flatbread immediately: Flatbread is best enjoyed fresh out of the oven.
