Potato Leek Flatbread

I found this recipe in Real Simple magazine (another one). They have some good recipes. Check out their website. Anyway, I actually crave this little pizza. So, try it out.

1 1-pound package refrigerated pizza dough
Cornmeal for the pan
2 small leeks (white and light green parts), halved and thinly sliced lengthwise
2 medium Red Bliss potatoes, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon fresh thyme
Kosher salt and pepper
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated Gruyère
1 5-ounce package mixed greens

Heat oven to 450° F. Roll the dough on a lightly floured surface to a 1/4-inch thickness. Sprinkle a baking sheet with cornmeal and place the dough on top. Combine the leeks, potatoes, thyme, 3/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the oil in a large bowl. Scatter the potato mixture over the dough and sprinkle with the Gruyère. Bake until the crust is golden, about 20 minutes. Serve with greens.
