# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It actually tastes as good as it looks, with tender vegetables and melty cheese that feels indulgent without the guilt.
  • You can prep everything in advance and assemble in minutes when guests arrive, so you're not stuck in the kitchen missing the celebration.
  • Kids love arranging the rainbow themselves, turning dinner into something playful and interactive.
02 -
  • Blanch the broccoli first or it'll stay tough and woody no matter how long it bakes—two minutes in boiling water changes everything.
  • Don't skip the parchment paper; these flatbreads can stick, and you'll regret it when you're trying to slide them onto a serving board.
03 -
  • If your flatbreads seem thin or flimsy, double them up or use naan bread as a sturdier base that won't sag under the toppings.
  • Slice the finished pizza while it's still warm so the cheese doesn't cool and cement everything together—warm cheese cuts clean, cold cheese drags and tears.
