Ingredients
  

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cup zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 cup bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), diced

1 small red onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup pizza sauce

1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese

1 cup mini pizza crusts (store-bought or homemade)

Fresh basil leaves, for garnish

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Prepare the Vegetables: In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, zucchini, bell peppers, and red onion. Add minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Toss everything well to ensure the veggies are well-coated.

      Roast the Veggies: Spread the mixed vegetables evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the veggies are tender and slightly caramelized. Stir halfway through for even cooking.

        Assemble the Skillets: In a cast-iron skillet or oven-safe skillet, place the mini pizza crusts at the bottom. Spread a generous layer of pizza sauce over each crust, followed by a portion of the roasted veggies.

          Add Cheese: Sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese on top of the vegetables, ensuring even coverage.

            Bake: Place the skillets in the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

              Garnish and Serve: Once out of the oven, let them cool for a couple of minutes. Garnish with fresh basil leaves and serve hot.
