Cuisine: Mediterranean
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 flatbreads
- 1 cup pesto
- 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 cups mixed roasted vegetables (e.g., bell peppers, zucchini, eggplant)
- 1 cup arugula
- Olive oil for drizzling
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This temperature is ideal for roasting vegetables, allowing them to become tender and caramelized.
- Prepare your mixed vegetables. You can use a combination of bell peppers, zucchini, and eggplant. Wash and chop them into bite-sized pieces for even cooking.
- In a large mixing bowl, toss the chopped vegetables with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Make sure the vegetables are well-coated with the oil and seasoning.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through the cooking time for even roasting.
- While the vegetables are roasting, prepare your flatbreads. You can use store-bought flatbreads or make your own if preferred. If desired, lightly brush the flatbreads with olive oil and warm them in a skillet over medium heat for a couple of minutes on each side until they are soft and pliable.
- Once the vegetables are done roasting, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. This will enhance their flavor and make them easier to handle.
- Spread about ¼ cup of pesto on each flatbread, ensuring an even layer to enhance the flavor of the wraps.
- Evenly distribute the roasted vegetables over the pesto-covered flatbreads. Make sure to include a good mix of all the vegetables for a colorful and delicious wrap.
- Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese generously over the roasted vegetables. The creamy feta will complement the flavors of the pesto and roasted veggies beautifully.
- Add a handful of fresh arugula on top of the feta cheese for a peppery bite and added freshness.
- To assemble the wraps, carefully fold in the sides of the flatbread and roll it up tightly from the bottom to the top. Ensure that the filling is secure inside the wrap.
- For an extra touch, you can drizzle a little olive oil on top of the wraps before serving. This adds flavor and a nice sheen.
- Cut each wrap in half diagonally for easy serving, and enjoy your delicious Roasted Vegetable Pesto and Feta Flatbread Wraps!
Tips
- Vegetable Roasting Secrets: Cut vegetables into uniform sizes to ensure even cooking and beautiful caramelization. Don't overcrowd the baking sheet, which can lead to steaming instead of roasting.
- Pesto Pro Tip: For maximum flavor, use a high-quality pesto and spread it generously but evenly. Homemade or artisan pesto can elevate the entire wrap.
- Feta Finesse: Use fresh, high-quality feta and crumble it just before adding to maintain its creamy texture and prevent clumping.
- Wrap Rolling Technique: Warm your flatbreads slightly to make them more pliable, and fold in the sides first before rolling to prevent filling from falling out.
- Make-Ahead Magic: You can roast vegetables and prepare components in advance, making these wraps perfect for meal prep or quick weeknight dinners.
- Customize Your Creation: Feel free to swap vegetables based on seasonality or personal preference. The beauty of this recipe is its flexibility!
