355 ml chicken or vegetable broth

¾ (227 g) block cream cheese

12 cloves garlic

1 ½ small pkgs grape tomatoes

1 ½ (227 g) blocks mozzarella cheese

1 ½ medium red onions

6 whole grain pitas

3 medium zucchini squash

all-purpose flour

black pepper

extra virgin olive oil

Italian seasoning

salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F).

Meanwhile, wash, dry, and trim zucchini. Halve lengthwise, then slice crosswise into thin half-moons. Transfer to a large baking sheet pan.

Peel, halve, and thinly slice onions. Add to the baking sheet.

Drizzle veggies with oil and season with spices; toss to combine and spread out in an even layer.

Peel garlic, place in the center of a medium-size square of aluminum foil, and drizzle with oil. Fold foil around the garlic to close the packet. Place garlic packet on the baking sheet with the veggies.

Place veggies in the oven and bake until zucchini is tender, about 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, wash, dry, and halve tomatoes; transfer to a large bowl, add oil and spices, then toss to combine. Set aside to marinate.

Coarsely grate mozzarella. Cut cream cheese into small pieces. Set cheeses aside, keeping them separate.

When the vegetables are done, remove from the oven and carefully transfer to the bowl with the tomatoes; stir to combine and set aside. (Leave garlic packet on the baking sheet).

Divide pitas between two baking sheets (leaving the garlic packet on one). Return to the oven and toast for 5-7 minutes. Remove from oven.

Meanwhile, preheat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add oil, flour, and spices. Whisk constantly for 30 seconds.

Reduce heat to low; whisk in broth and cream cheese until smooth, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.

Carefully remove garlic from the packet and roughly chop; add to the pan with the white sauce and stir to combine.

Top toasted pitas with white sauce, mozzarella, and veggies. Return pitas to the oven and bake until the cheese melts, 4-5 minutes.

To serve, divide pitas between plates and enjoy!
