# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • It's a conversation starter, honestly, because people light up when they see actual rainbows on their food.
  • Takes barely 35 minutes from hungry to happy, which matters on nights when you're juggling chaos.
  • Every vegetable tastes like itself (not buried in sauce), so even the pickiest eaters find something to love.
  • Way healthier than the typical holiday fare, but still feels totally festive and indulgent.
02 -
  • Don't skip blanching the broccoli, it sounds fussy but raw broccoli stays tough on a flatbread pizza and nobody wants that rubbery surprise.
  • Arrange your vegetables in actual stripes rather than scattered, because visual impact changes how food tastes, this is legitimate science and also just true.
03 -
  • Use parchment paper religiously because it prevents sticking and uneven browning, and cleanup becomes a dream instead of a chore.
  • Let your vegetable prep station be organized before you start assembling, because once you're spreading hummus you want everything within arm's reach and ready to go.
