RAINBOW VEGGIE AND PESTO TART RECIPE BY TASTY



Rainbow Veggie And Pesto Tart Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: fresh basil, pine nuts, vegetarian parmesan cheese, garlic, olive oil, ricotta cheese, salt, pepper, medium zucchinis, medium yellow squashes, large carrots, large eggplant, butter, puff pastry, rice, dried oregano

Provided by Gwenaelle Le Cochennec

Categories     Dinner

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

3 cups fresh basil
¾ cup pine nuts
¾ cup vegetarian parmesan cheese
3 cloves garlic
¾ cup olive oil, divided
½ cup ricotta cheese
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
2 medium zucchinis
2 medium yellow squashes
4 large carrots
1 large eggplant
1 tablespoon butter
1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
2 cups rice, uncooked
½ teaspoon dried oregano

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!

Tips:

  • Prepare the vegetables in advance: To save time, wash, peel, and cut the vegetables beforehand. You can also grate the cheese and mix the cream cheese mixture ahead of time.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: The more colorful the vegetables, the more visually appealing the pinwheels will be. Some good options include bell peppers, carrots, cucumbers, zucchini, and avocado.
  • Make sure the cream cheese mixture is spread evenly: This will help to ensure that the pinwheels roll up nicely and don't fall apart.
  • Roll the pinwheels tightly: This will help to keep them from unraveling. You can use a sushi mat to help you roll the pinwheels tightly.
  • Chill the pinwheels before slicing: This will help them to hold their shape and make them easier to slice.
  • Serve the pinwheels with your favorite dipping sauce: Some good options include ranch dressing, hummus, or guacamole.

Conclusion:

Rainbow veggie pinwheels are a delicious, healthy, and visually appealing snack or appetizer. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or potlucks.
