Grilled Vegetable Tart Recipe Is Easy, Cheesy and Filled With Fresh Flavor
Vibrant and delicious, this grilled vegetable tart recipe is a tasty way to take advantage of in-season produce like asparagus, red pepper and zucchini. It makes an impressive appetizer for any gathering (you could cut it into smaller tartlets if you like), yet it’s also an excellent dinner- or brunch-worthy side dish. And it’s easy, thanks to puffed pastry dough.
This tart is also endlessly adaptable. It’s simple to switch up the veggies, depending on the season, and you can sub in a different type of cheese depending on whether you want a sharp, tangy or subtle flavor. For extra yumminess, whisk in some chopped herbs. Give this recipe a try, then leave us a comment.
Quick tip: To grill asparagus, arrange the spears side by side, then thread two skewers through the tops and bottoms to form a “raft.” This will keep the stalks from falling and allow you to flip them with ease.
