Ingredients
  

  • 2 purchased flatbreads each 10 inches round
  • 1 cup Whipped Herb Ricotta
  • 1 zucchini medium size, ribboned
  • 1 yellow squash small, optional
  • ¼ cup red onion sliced, or other favorite veggies
  • 1 cup mozzarella grated
  • 1 cup Gruyere cheese or other strong cheese
  • ¼ cup grated parmesan
  • drizzle olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt and pepper (each)

Instructions
 

  • Using a speed peeler (or similar) ribbon the zucchini and yellow squash.
  • Generously spread on the Whipped Herb Ricotta
  • Sprinkle lightly with pearled or grated parmesan cheese
  • Sprinkle some of the grated cheese
  • Twist the zucchini ribbons, piling high and loose, and keeping them airy. They'll cook down during baking so try to pile them but without densely squshing them together.
  • Add the other ingredients if you have them. I added red onion.
  • Top with a little more cheese.
  • Drizzle a tablespoon of olive oil, then salt & pepper
  • Bake in a preheated 425f oven for 15-20 minutes until cheese is melted. Watch towards the end so edges don't become over-browned.
  • If desired, add another little sprinkle of pearled Parmesan after it comes out of the oven.
