Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss 1 small sliced zucchini, 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, and 1 small thinly sliced red onion with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and black pepper to taste. Spread vegetables on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
  2. Step 2: Roll out 1 lb store-bought pizza dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet to about 12x8 inches. Brush the dough evenly with 1 tbsp olive oil.
  3. Step 3: Scatter the roasted vegetables evenly over the dough, then sprinkle 4 oz crumbled goat cheese on top. Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the crust is golden and cheese is slightly melted.
  4. Step 4: Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle 1/4 cup torn fresh basil leaves over the flatbread. Slice into 6 pieces and serve warm.
