directions

Step 1

Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 425ºF. Spray a heavy baking sheet with vegetable oil cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, toss together the butternut squash, zucchini, bell peppers, kidney beans, oil, cumin, oregano and salt. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the baking sheet. Roast until the vegetables are golden and tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

Step 3

Split the pita breads in half horizontally to make 4 rounds. Arrange in a single layer on a heavy baking sheet. Bake until crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix together the yogurt, lime juice, agave and chipotle pepper until smooth.

Step 5

Spoon the vegetable mixture on top of the crispy pitas and serve with a dollop of the chipotle cream.
