Total time: 45 min • Prep: 20 min • Cook: 25 min • Serves: 8 • Difficulty: Easy
Jazz up a store-bought focaccia or pizza crust with some grilled vegetables, seasoning and cheese and serve this savory pie as an appetizer or side dish. Or, cut it into larger pieces and pair it with a salad for a light lunch. When selecting zucchini for this recipe, look for firm, unblemished vegetables. When it comes to choosing the red and yellow peppers, look for deep, vivid color without any blemishes. Store both the peppers and zucchini in your refrigerator as soon as you get home with them. The zucchini will last about five days and the peppers should last around 10 days.
