Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large Mediterranean-style flatbreads or naan
  • 1 cup hummus (garlic or roasted red pepper variety recommended)
  • 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 1 small red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional garnishes:
  • Fresh parsley or cilantro, chopped
  • Crumbled feta cheese (optional, skip for dairy-free)
  • A squeeze of fresh lemon juice
  • Red pepper flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F / 190–205°C).
  2. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  3. In a mixing bowl, toss the sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  4. Spread the seasoned veggies evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil.
  5. Roast the veggies for 20–25 minutes, tossing halfway through, until tender with slight caramelization.
  6. Place the flatbreads directly on the grill or grill pan and cook for 2–3 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the bread is crisp but still pliable.
  7. Spread a generous layer of hummus over each flatbread.
  8. Top with the warm roasted veggies.
  9. Add optional garnishes: sprinkle chopped parsley, crumbled feta, a squeeze of lemon juice, and red pepper flakes if desired.
  10. Cut into wedges and serve immediately while warm.

Notes

Preheat grill pan fully before placing bread down and press gently with spatula for even char. Roast veggies at high temperature and toss halfway through for caramelization. Keep flatbread warm tented with foil if needed. Avoid overloading flatbread with veggies to prevent sogginess. For gluten-free option, use gluten-free flatbread or grilled portobello mushrooms as base. Hummus should be at room temperature for easy spreading.
