This roasted vegetable naan flatbread makes the most of store-bought ingredients for an easy vegetarian recipe for lunch or dinner. It’s different than a pizza because the veggies (zucchini, summer squash, bell peppers & tomatoes) are the feature ingredients. I top it with just a sprinkle of crumbled feta.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

It is uses store-bought ingredients. Naan is the perfect for crust especially for roasted vegetables. Then cheese is just a finishing touch instead of melted all over the toppings.

Speaking of veggies, there are a lot of them. I use two sheet pans to roast zucchini, yellow squash, tomatoes and peppers. This is such a simple vegetarian meal.

Hummus is an easy way to customize your flatbread. There are times when I whip up a batch of homemade roasted garlic hummus, but store-bought hummus is great too. You can use your favorite flavor. I’m a big fan of spicy hummus for some of heat.

The Ingredients

Ingredients including naan, vegetables, hummus and olive oil.

This is what you need:

  • Naan can be found at most grocery stores in the bread aisle. It is available in white and whole wheat.
  • Zucchini and yellow squash: These summer squash varieties are interchangable. They should be frm without any soft spots.
  • Bell peppers: The recipe calls for a red pepper and an orange pepper. This is for both color and flavor. You can also use yellow bell peppers.
  • Tomatoes: Grape or cherry tomatoes, halved, roast with the peppers on the same pan. Going with the theme of a rainbow of veggies, tomatoes in a variety of colors are a bonus.
  • Hummus is the “sauce” for this pizza. Don’t limit yourself to just plain hummus. Take advantage of store-bought or from-scratch hummus like my roasted red pepper hummus with smoked almonds.
  • Feta cheese is a nice way to top the flatbread with something a little sharp and salty.
  • Parsley: I like giving the pizza a sprinkle of fresh herbs right before serving it.
  • Olive oil, kosher salt & black pepper are needed for roasting the vegetables.

Seasonal Variations

At its most basic, this naan pizza is crust, hummus and veggies. No matter the season, if you have other roasted vegetables they would be great for toppings. Try crispy roasted brussels sprouts and butternut squash in the fall and winter.

How To Make This Roasted Vegetable Naan Flatbread

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.

1. Toss the zucchini and squash with oil, salt and pepper on a baking sheet. Make sure they are not overlapping.

2. Toss the peppers and tomatoes with oil, salt and pepper on another pan. Spread them into a single layer with the tomatoes cut side up. If the tomatoes are flesh side down, they will stick to the pan.

3. Roast the veggies until they are browned at the edges. This will take about 20-25 minutes.

4. Warm the naan in the oven. Place it right on the rack for 2 minutes per side.

5. To assemble the pizza, spread the hummus on the naan. Leave a border around the edge that’s about 1 inch.

7. Sprinkle on crumbled feta and parsley.

Serving

These flatbreads are best eaten warm or at room temperature. You can slice them and serve them as an appetizer too. Or treat them like a vegetarian main dish. To go with it, I like this arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette or this better-than-a restaurant house salad.

    This was fantastic! My husband and I loved it! So flavorful! I just added a little garlic powder because I love garlic. LOL! The only other thing I did different was add some tzatziki sauce on top because I had a little left and didn’t want it to go bad. Will definitely make again! Thank you!
