Instructions
- If grilling the vegetables, bring grill to medium-high heat. Slice thickly (zucchini lengthwise, tomatoes crosswise), brush with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Grill until vegetables are softened and browned along their edges.
- If roasting the vegetables, set the heat at 325°, lay thickly sliced vegetables in a single layer in a baking dish, and drizzle them with a bit of extra-virgin olive oil; roast for about an hour.
- Slice the mozzarella and basil leaves into small pieces and dot with olive oil.
- Arrange vegetables on plates, tuck mozzarella and basil leaves in among them, and shake a bit of red pepper flakes over each plate.
