Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C) and adjust a rack to the upper position. Wash and dry all produce. Trim the bottom inch from the baby broccoli, then chop the stalks and florets into bite-sized pieces. Halve the zucchini lengthwise, then slice into thin half-moons. Mince the garlic.
- Heat a large drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and baby broccoli. Cook, tossing occasionally, until tender and starting to brown, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
- Thinly slice the mozzarella or tear it into small pieces with your hands. Finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes.
- Lightly oil a baking sheet and place the flatbreads on it. Spread pesto evenly over each flatbread. Scatter the mozzarella, cooked vegetables and sun-dried tomatoes on top.
- Bake the flatbreads until the cheese is melted and the crust is starting to brown, 5-7 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, cut into slices and serve warm.
Recipe Tips
For extra crispiness, bake the flatbreads directly on the oven rack instead of a baking sheet.
Feel free to substitute baby broccoli with regular broccoli or broccolini.
If you prefer a vegetarian version, ensure the pesto is dairy-free or use a vegan pesto.
FAQ
Can I use a different type of flatbread?

How do I store leftovers?
Store leftover flatbread slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to restore crispness.
Can I add other toppings?
