Array of vegetables
For the pizza toast topping, I have used chopped, mixed veggies. While I have used the frozen ones, you could use fresh vegetables as well. However, make sure that, they are finely chopped. This makes it easier to arrange over the bread slices. For your sautéed vegetables pizza toast, the choice of vegetables is completely personal. Here I have used a mix of carrots, bell peppers, peas, sweet corn, broccoli and onions. You could also add tofu and/or paneer.
Also, the choice of bread – brown or white – is up to you. Either ways, your pizza toast will taste fabulous.
