Bread Flatbread with Vegetables

Bread flatbread with stewed vegetables, naturally filled and baked like the one still prepared today in Sicily that my dad always bought at the mill, a local seller with zero-mile products, old memories. I too often prepare it with seasonal vegetables cooked specifically to make this extraordinary dish that perfectly replaces a second course but also becomes a single dish. That’s why each flatbread always has a different flavor and no two are alike. Sometimes I have so many vegetables because I’m afraid of running out, and I overbuy them.

in cucina con pina

My name is Pina, and my passion is food and cooking in general. On the blog, I focus on regional dishes like those from my birthplace, Sicily. I also feature dishes from Lazio, the region that has hosted me for over 40 years, but in general, I cover all Italian regions. Traveling and exploring is my second passion, so I couldn't leave out dishes from around the "World" on my blog. My blog is divided into simple and essential sections like appetizers, first courses, main courses, side dishes, bread and leavened products, jams and preserves, wines and wineries, and of course, travels. Desserts are included, and finally, there is a dedicated corner for gluten-free options. Easy recipes, explained step by step and always updated.
