4 small seeded baguettes
1 cup goat cheese, softened
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 zucchini, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup fresh arugula leaves
Fresh parsley, for garnish
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Arrange the sliced bell peppers, zucchini, and red onion on a baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Roast the vegetables for 20-25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until tender and slightly caramelized. Let them cool.
Slice each baguette lengthwise, without cutting all the way through, and gently open.
Spread a generous layer of goat cheese on the bottom half of each baguette.
Layer the roasted vegetables over the goat cheese.
Top with fresh arugula and a few sprigs of parsley.
Press the baguette gently to close, wrap with parchment paper for easier handling if desired, and serve.
For extra flavor, try adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze before serving.
These sandwiches travel well — perfect for picnics or meal prep.
Substitute goat cheese with feta or hummus for a dairy-free option.
