Ingredients
  

1 large store-bought or homemade flatbread (such as naan or pizza dough)

2 heads of garlic

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

1 medium zucchini, thinly sliced

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), thinly sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup spinach leaves, roughly chopped

1 teaspoon dried oregano

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or a dairy-free alternative)

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Balsamic glaze for drizzling (optional)

Instructions
 

Roast the Garlic:

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the tops off the heads of garlic, drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and wrap each bulb in aluminum foil. Place in the preheated oven and roast for about 30-35 minutes, or until soft and golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, squeeze the roasted garlic into a bowl and mash it with a fork. Set aside.

      Prepare the Vegetables:

        While the garlic is roasting, wash and slice the zucchini, bell pepper, and halve the cherry tomatoes. In a large bowl, combine the vegetables with the chopped spinach, oregano, salt, and pepper. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and toss to coat evenly.

          Assemble the Flatbread:

            If using homemade dough, roll it out into a flat, round shape about 10-12 inches in diameter. If using store-bought flatbread, simply lay it on a baking sheet. Spread the mashed roasted garlic evenly on the surface of the flatbread. Sprinkle half of the shredded mozzarella cheese over the garlic.

              Add the Veggies:

                Layer the prepared vegetables on top of the cheese, distributing them evenly. Finally, top with the remaining mozzarella cheese.

                  Bake:

                    Place the flatbread in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, and the edges of the flatbread are crispy.

                      Garnish and Serve:

                        Once baked, remove the flatbread from the oven. If desired, garnish with fresh basil leaves and a drizzle of balsamic glaze. Cut into wedges and serve warm.
