# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It's a sneaky way to get vegetables on the table without anyone complaining about eating their greens.
  • The whole thing comes together in under 35 minutes, which means you can go from idea to dinner without the usual kitchen stress.
  • Kids love arranging the colors, so you get free labor and genuine excitement about what they're eating.
02 -
  • If your vegetables are too wet or chopped too thick, they'll steam instead of roast and won't contribute to the texture you're after—pat everything dry and keep pieces relatively uniform and thin.
  • Don't be tempted to pile on too many toppings or your pizza will become a floppy mess that's impossible to eat neatly and the flatbread won't crisp.
03 -
  • Pat your vegetables completely dry with paper towels before arranging them, because any excess moisture will steam the flatbread and prevent it from crisping properly.
  • Arrange your rainbow in thin, deliberate lines rather than clustering colors together, because it makes the final pizza feel intentional and looks restaurant-quality.
