Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes. This will ensure it’s ready when you’re ready to bake your cheesy bread pizzas. -
Prepare the Vegetables
Heat a sauce pan over medium heat and add a little extra virgin olive oil. Once the oil is heated, begin roasting the vegetables:- Onions: Thinly slice the onion and roast it in the pan until soft and translucent. Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- Broccoli: Cut the broccoli into small florets, and roast them until they become tender yet crisp, maintaining their vibrant green color. Season with salt and pepper.
- Yellow Bell Pepper (Capsicum): Slice the bell pepper thinly, and roast it until it softens, keeping its color bright and fresh.
- Carrot: Thinly slice the carrot and roast until tender but still slightly crisp, adding salt and pepper to taste.
Roast each vegetable separately to preserve its distinct texture and flavor.
-
Prepare the Panini Bread
While the vegetables are roasting, take the panini bread slices and carefully slit them in half. Smear butter evenly on both sides of the bread for a rich, buttery flavor. -
Assemble the Pizzas
Once the vegetables are roasted, begin assembling your Cheesy Bread Pizzas:- Smear a layer of homemade pizza and pasta sauce on each slice of the buttered panini bread.
- Add a generous dollop of Del Monte Cheesy Garlic Mayo on top of the sauce, spreading it out evenly to create a creamy base.
- Pile on the roasted vegetables, making sure to distribute them evenly for a balanced topping.
-
Bake the Pizzas
Place the prepared cheesy bread pizzas onto a baking sheet and bake them in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until the bread is slightly crispy and golden brown. -
Serve
Remove from the oven and serve immediately while still warm and crispy. These Cheesy Bread Pizzas make a perfect evening snack, especially when paired with a refreshing glass of Oreo Milkshake for kids. Alternatively, serve them alongside Indian Style Masala Macaroni and Vanilla Choco Mousse with Chocolate Chips for a light and tasty dinner.
