Ingredients
- 1 red bell pepper sliced
- 1 zucchini sliced
- 1 red onion sliced
- 1 head garlic
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- Bagels (as many as you need)
Optional toppings
- Prosciutto or your choice of ham
- Tomato slices
- Spinach leaves
Instructions
For the Veggie Dip
- Preheat your oven to around 400°F (200°C). Take your red pepper, zucchini, and red onion, and slice them up. Lay them out on a baking sheet.
- Grab your head of garlic, and cut it in half across the cloves. Take a piece of aluminum foil, place the garlic halves cut-side up, drizzle with olive oil, and then wrap it up to form a little foil packet. Pop this on the baking sheet with the veggies.
- Slide everything into the oven and bake for about 40-50 minutes. You want everything soft and slightly caramelized.
- Once everything’s baked and cool enough to handle, squeeze the garlic cloves out of their skins – you’re looking for just the soft insides. Toss the garlic, roasted veggies, a pinch of salt, and some pepper into a blender. Whiz it up until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
For the Bagel
- Cut your bagel in half. Optional, but highly recommended – grill or toast these halves until they’re nicely browned and crispy. Gives a great texture contrast.
- Spread a generous layer of your homemade veggie dip on the toasted bagel halves. Add a slice or two of prosciutto (or whatever topping you fancy), some tomato slices, and a few leaves of spinach.
