# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • It's actually fun to make, especially with someone you enjoy spending time with in the kitchen.
  • The vegetables stay crisp and bright because you're not cooking them into submission, just warming them gently.
  • Kids who normally push vegetables around their plate suddenly want to know which color comes next.
  • You can have dinner ready in under 35 minutes, which feels like a miracle on busy weekdays.
02 -
  • Don't chop your vegetables too large, or they won't cook through and you'll bite into raw broccoli, which is not the vibe.
  • Patting your flatbread completely dry before oiling prevents steam from making the bottom soggy.
  • The difference between flatbread that's just warm and flatbread that's actually crispy is about two minutes of patience, so don't pull them out early.
03 -
  • Buy your vegetables the day of so they're crisp and snappy, because a limp bell pepper shows up in every bite.
  • If you're making this for a crowd, assemble two pizzas at a time instead of one giant one, because it bakes more evenly and you can customize each one differently.
