RAINBOW VEGGIE AND PESTO TART RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Combine the basil, pine nuts, Parmesan, garlic, ½ cup (120 ml) of olive oil, ricotta, salt, and pepper in a food processor and puree until blended and smooth. Set aside.
• Using a vegetable peeler, peel the zucchini, yellow squash and carrots into ribbons.
• Cut the eggplant lengthwise into thin slices, then slice in half lengthwise.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Grease a 9-inch (23 cm) tart dish with butter using a piece of parchment paper.
• Lay the puff pastry in the tart dish and delicately press it flat against the bottom and up the sides. Crimp any dough hanging over the edges and prick the bottom all over with a fork.
• Lay a piece of parchment paper over the pastry and pour the rice evenly on top. The rice helps keep the bottom of the crust from rising while baking.
• Parbake the crust for about 15 minutes, until the puff pastry starts to cook.
• Carefully lift the parchment paper to remove the rice (save for using in other recipes or discard). Increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C).
• Spread the ricotta pesto mixture evenly on the bottom of the tart.
• Starting from the outside, line the walls of the tart with the veggie ribbons, alternating veggies, until the entire shell is filled.
• Sprinkle the oregano on top and brush with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the veggies are tender.
• Let cool for a few minutes.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!

RAINBOW VEGGIE SALAD RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• On a cutting board, chop head of lettuce.
• In a large bowl, combine the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, yellow bell pepper, cucumber, and diced red onion.
• To make the dressing, combine the red wine vinegar, honey, dijon mustard, dried oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl, and whisk together until the dressing is thick.
• Pour the dressing over the salad just before serving.
• Enjoy!

RAINBOW VEGGIE ROLL RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Season the sushi rice with the rice vinegar, fanning and stirring until room temperature.
• On the rolling mat place one sheet of nori with the rough side facing upwards.
• Wet your hands and grab a handful of rice and place it on your nori. Sprinkle with seasame seeds (optional). Spread the rice evenly throughout the nori without smushing the rice down. Flip so the nori is facing upwards.
• Arrange, in a horizontal row 1 inch (2.5 cm) from the bottom, bell peppers, cucumbers, and avocado slices.
• Grabbing both nori and the mat, roll the mat over the filling so the extra space at the bottom touches the other side, squeezing down to make a nice tight roll. Squeeze down along the way to keep the roll from holding its shape.
• Transfer the roll onto a cutting board. Rub a knife on a damp paper towel before slicing the roll into six equal portions.
• Enjoy!

RAINBOW ROSE VEGGIE TART

Steps:

• Unfold a puff pastry sheet over a tart pan. Place parchment paper or foil in the center and weight it down with beans or pie weight.
• Bake the tart base in a preheated oven at 350 degrees F for 15-20 minutes. Remove the weights and parchment paper. Let it cool.
• In a bowl, add the eggs, ricotta, grated parmesan cheese, grated nutmeg and pinch of salt. Add the mozzarella and oregano. Mix everything up until smooth.
• Slice strips of zucchini and carrots length-wise using a potato peeler or a mandolin. Place the slices in a bowl and cook in the microwave for 1 minute. This step will soften the slices and make them much easier to roll.
• Spread the cheese mixture on top of the tart base.
• Take one slice of a vegetable and roll it up very tightly-this will form the core of the rose. Take another slice and keep rolling. With around 2-3 slices you should obtain a decent-size rose bud. Place the bud in the center of the tart, pushing it down into the cheese. Keep rolling roses of different colors and place them one next to the other in a spiral formation.
• Brush olive oil on top of the vegetables and bake the tart at 375 degrees F for 50 minutes.
