Turkish Pide is one of the most popular bakery products you can see in the bakeries, restaurants, and stores. There are many topping options but maybe the best one that goes well is a minced meat topping with vegetables. In the bakeries, they probably make it with much more simple dough but in-home versions we use yogurt, oil, and milk to make it a more tasty and rich dough.
For vegetarians for the dough, you can make it with simple yeast, water, and oil dough. Alternative topping choices would be onion, spinach or onion potato filling with seasonings.
If you are not vegetarian you can sprinkle mozzarella or kashar cheese over the minced meat or spinach filling and for an extra taste you can crack an egg over it just 5-6 before you take out from the oven to have a sunnyside egg on top :) Of course for that the size of the pide should be big enough. Or just whisk the egg slightly and pour some over them :)
Ingredients for the Turkish Home Style Pide:

1 cup lukewarm water
