Preheat the Oven
Begin by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes. This ensures that it reaches the ideal temperature for baking. -
Roast the Vegetables
While the oven is preheating, heat a saucepan with a bit of extra virgin olive oil. Start by roasting the onions, broccoli, carrots, and bell peppers one by one. Ensure that each vegetable softens while maintaining its vibrant color. Season with salt and pepper as you go to enhance the flavors. Roasting the veggies separately helps maintain their unique textures and taste. -
Prepare the Bread
Once the vegetables are done, take your panini bread slices and spread butter evenly on both sides of each slice. This adds richness and a crispy texture once baked. Next, generously smear the homemade pizza and pasta sauce over the buttered slices. -
Assemble the Pizzas
Add a dollop of Del Monte Cheesy Garlic Mayo on top of the sauce to give your cheesy bread pizza that creamy, garlicky punch. Then, layer the roasted vegetables on top, distributing them evenly across all slices. -
Bake
Arrange the assembled cheesy bread pizzas on a baking sheet and place them in the preheated oven. Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the bread is crispy and the flavors meld together beautifully. -
Serve
Remove from the oven and serve hot! This dish makes a fantastic evening snack for kids, especially during summer, paired with a cool drink. Consider serving it with a glass of Oreo Milkshake for a fun and indulgent treat.
