Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°F with a rack in the upper position. Wash and dry all produce. Trim and discard the bottom inch of the baby broccoli, then chop stalks and florets into bite-size pieces. Halve the zucchini lengthwise, then slice into thin half-moons. Mince the garlic.
  2. 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, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat.
  3. Thinly slice the fresh mozzarella or tear it into small pieces. Finely chop the sun-dried tomatoes.
  4. Place the flatbreads on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Spread pesto evenly over each flatbread. Scatter the mozzarella, cooked vegetables and sun-dried tomatoes in an even layer on top.
  5. Bake until the cheese is melted and the crust is starting to brown, 5-7 minutes.
  6. Cut the baked flatbreads into slices and serve warm.

Recipe Tips

For extra crispiness, bake the flatbreads directly on the oven rack for the last minute.

Feel free to substitute other vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms.

If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes before baking.

FAQ

Can I use a different type of cheese?

Yes, you can substitute fresh mozzarella with shredded mozzarella, provolone or even goat cheese for a different flavor.

Can I make this gluten-free?

Store leftover slices in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a toaster oven or oven to restore crispiness.
