Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice the 1 red bell pepper and 1 zucchini into 1/2 inch strips. Toss with 2 tbsp olive oil, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp black pepper.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill the vegetables in a single layer, turning occasionally, until charred and tender, about 8-10 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Spread the 1.5 cups hummus onto a serving plate, creating a swirl with the back of a spoon.

  4. Step 4

    Arrange the grilled vegetables over the hummus. Sprinkle with 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle with 2 tbsp balsamic glaze. Serve with toasted bread or croutons if desired.

  6. Step 6

    Optional: add a pinch of smoked paprika or a squeeze of lemon for extra flavor.
