Veggie Ribbon Pie 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!

Steps:

• Using a vegetable peeler, cut the vegetables lengthwise into very thin strips., In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add broth. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1/3 cup. Add the vegetable strips and 1 tablespoon parsley; cook and stir for 2 minutes or just until crisp-tender. Sprinkle with remaining parsley. Serve with a slotted spoon.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350. Place four chicken breasts and vegetables in a skillet or baking dish. Sprinkle with sea salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning and toss until coated. NOTE: You can use a bit of oil for this part but I opt not to and use the moisture from the chicken and vegetables to help the spices stick.
• 2. Bake all ingredients 20-25 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through. Cool ingredients in the fridge or counter until you can handle them.
• 3. RESERVE ANY JUICES OR PAN DRIPPINGS LEFT FROM BAKING. Chop all ingredients and set aside.
• 4. Place hot water in the pan or on the baking sheet to get the drippings and juices from baking your meat and veggies. Set aside.
• 5. Add water/dripping mixture, cream cheese, and shredded cheese in a mixing bowl. Mix until creamy adding more water if needed (you want it to have a cream soup like texture).
• 6. Add your reserved meat and veggie mix to the cheese mixture.
• 7. Open 1 can of crescent rolls and press into a springform pan or non-stick skillet to form a pie crust.
• 8. Add filling to crust.
• 9. Place 2nd can of crescent rolls to the top of the pie. You may need to press the seams together so that the pie doesn't leak.
• 10. Bake at 350 for 23-30 minutes or until the pie is golden brown and the filling is hot.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the squash in 1 tbsp oil and some seasoning and roast for 20 mins until soft. Meanwhile, fry the onion in the remaining oil for 10-15 mins over a low heat until golden and boil the potatoes for 8 mins until soft. Drain the potatoes and leave the veg to cool.
• Reduce oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 20cm x 30cm baking tin with a long double thickness strip of parchment (this will help you to lift out the pie once cooked). Squeeze the two blocks of pastry together, then roll out on a floured surface - the pastry should be about the thickness of a £1 coin. Use the pastry to line the tin, leaving any excess pastry hanging over the edges.
• Sprinkle the breadcrumbs over the base of the pastry. Layer in the beetroot slices, peppers, squash, onions, feta, potatoes, peas and herbs (in that order for a nice rainbow effect), seasoning well between each layer. Beat the eggs and pour slowly over the filling until most of it has sunk through the layers, saving a little to glaze the top. Brush some egg over the overhanging pastry then lay the rolled pastry sheet on top. Press the pastry sheets together, then use some kitchen scissors to trim the excess pastry, leaving about 2cm. Roll the edges in to seal, then press them firmly with a fork. Brush with egg, sprinkle with seeds, then use the fork prongs to mark out 12 portions. Bake for 1 hr 20 mins until the pastry is golden and crisp. Leave to cool completely before slicing, or chill for up to two days before serving.
