How to cook deliciously - Easy Summer Vegetable Pizzas

1. Stage

Preheat the oven: Set a rack on the upper shelf of the oven and preheat it to 500°F.

2. Stage

Cut the zucchini in lengthwise ribbons: Using a vegetable peeler and starting from the stem and working to the bottom, peel off and discard the outer skin from one side of the squash. Peel off more ribbons until you reach the seeds. Turn the squash over and repeat. Discard the core.

3. Stage

Warm the naan briefly: On a rimmed baking sheet, spread out the naan loaves. Brush the tops of each naan with 1 tablespoon of oil. Bake for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the oven.

4. Stage

Top the pizzas: Sprinkle each naan with about 2 tablespoons of Parmesan and 1/2 cup grated fontina. Top with 6 to 7 zucchini ribbons and several pepper slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and drizzle with a little oil.

5. Stage

Make the salad topper: In a bowl, toss the arugula, basil, mint, and tomatoes with 1 tablespoon of oil. Sprinkle with vinegar and more salt and pepper, to taste. Toss together. You’ll top the pizzas with this salad after the pizza bakes.

6. Stage

Bake and serve the pizzas: Place the pizzas in the oven and bake for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the cheese melts. Remove and drizzle with a little more olive oil. Top with the salad and serve.
