This is a dead simple dinner that’s quick to prepare and easy to make in bulk for meal prepping.
It’s also healthy – according to my DH, *too* healthy, and can’t be classified as ‘pizza’. 😆 Call it a flatbread, then.
I was a big fan, and ended up eating the leftover hummus & veggies in a bunch of different ways throughout the week.
vegetarian, vegan

Roasted Veggie Pizza
Mixed veggies: I used a combo of zucchini, eggplant, peppers, carrots and onions
Hummus
Some sort of pizza base: I used bran pita, but naan would be great here, as would tortillas or pizza dough flats
Edamame, cooked and shelled
Black olives
Sun dried tomatoes
Red pepper flakes
Zaatar
Oil, salt & pepper
Preheat your oven to 200C/400F. Chop your veggies into bite-sized pieces, and arrange on a prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Drizzle some oil over and sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and spread back out in a single layer.
Bake 15 minutes, flip, and bake an additional 10 – 15 minutes or until your desired brownness is reached. Remove and set aside.
The rest is simple. Prep your edamame if it came shelled like mine did. Set aside.
To assemble, spread hummus out in a thin-ish layer on your flatbread like you would marinara on a pizza. Arrange your roasted veggies on top, adding a sprinkle of edamame, olives and sun dried tomato to Zhuzh up your pizza a bit.
Sprinkle spices over top.
Bake on a cookie sheet 10 minutes or until crisp. Pull and slice.
Serves a few
Oops – skipped ahead a day!





What to do with some rapidly wrinkling carrots and an abundance of hot sauce? Spicy chicken with carrot fries. Yum.

Hot Mustard Chicken with Carrot Fries
2 medium carrots
2 – 3 chicken breasts
2 Tbsp. yellow mustard
2 Tbsp. your favorite hot sauce (I used a garlic variety)
1 Tbsp. Maggi chicken seasoning (I used Magic Sarap, but this isn’t strictly paleo – regular chicken seasoning would work just as well)
2 tsp. garlic powder
Juice of 1 lime
1 Tbsp. cornstarch or arrowroot powder
1 – 2 Tbsp. fat of choice
2 tsp. – 1 Tbsp. chipotle seasoning
Salt & pepper
Preheat your oven to 200C/400F.
Halve and slice your carrots into roughly fry-shaped pieces. Toss with the oil, cornstarch/arrowroot powder, chipotle seasoning and salt & pepper.
Spread out in a single layer on a prepared baking sheet.
Bake 15 minutes, flip, and bake an additional 10 – 15 minutes or until your desired crispness is reached.
While the fries are working, chop your chicken into bite-sized pieces.
Toss with the mustard, hot sauce, maggi, garlic powder, lime juice, salt & pepper.
When the fries are ready to flip, scoot them all to 1 side of the baking sheet. Add the chicken to the other side in a single layer and bake.
The fries serve 2, the chicken 3
