Ingredients (Serves 2–4)

For the Flatbread:

• 2 pre-made flatbreads or naan
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

For the Whipped Feta:

• ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 2 tablespoons cream cheese or Greek yogurt
• 1 teaspoon lemon juice
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• Black pepper, to taste

For the Toppings:

• ½ red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• ½ zucchini, thinly sliced

• 10–12 cherry tomatoes, halved
• ¼ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• Fresh herbs (parsley, mint, or basil) for garnish
• Optional: drizzle of balsamic glaze or olive oil

Instructions

1. Prepare the Whipped Feta:
   In a small bowl, combine feta, cream cheese (or Greek yogurt), lemon juice, garlic, and black pepper. Blend with a fork or small food processor until smooth and creamy.
2. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
3. Roast the Vegetables:
   Toss bell pepper, zucchini, red onion, and cherry tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, pepper, and oregano. Spread on the baking sheet and roast for 12–15 minutes until tender and slightly caramelized.
4. Prepare the Flatbread:
   Brush flatbreads lightly with olive oil. Toast in the oven for 5 minutes to warm and slightly crisp the edges.
5. Assemble the Flatbread:
   Spread a generous layer of whipped feta over each flatbread. Top with roasted vegetables, olives, and fresh herbs. Drizzle with balsamic glaze or olive oil if desired.
6. Serve:
   Slice into wedges and enjoy immediately as a light meal or appetizer.
