Zucchini flatbread with red onion

Veggie pizzas or flatbreads are one of our favourite family dinners. They’re healthy, simple and quick! I love to use seasonal products, so we can always enjoy fresh local produce. My favourite combinations are: mushrooms and garlic with asparagus, red and green pepper, tomato and basil, and… zucchini with red onion. Yummy and healthy, isn’t that the best recipe ever?

I tend to have a ready rolled pizza dough on the fridge. Of course, I could make the dough myself, but I don’t usually have time for that, and there’re tons of quality lactose-free options available at the supermarket. Besides, it’s also a very good option when I have friends round: I bake two or three different versions, and serve them in small rectangular pieces. Clean, healthy and delicious finger food. 😉
