What do I need to make this Crescent Roll Veggie Pizza?
- Crescent Rolls (I have found Walmart to be the cheapest by far!)
- Fresh veggies (red pepper, broccoli, carrots, green onion)
- Cream cheese
- Sour cream
- Ranch dressing mix
- Cheddar cheese
I like to lay parchment paper on the pan before spreading the crescent roll dough for the crust!
Step By Step Instructions:
- Use 2 cans of crescent rolls and spread them into my favorite sheet pan, it’s the size of 2 – 9×13 pans.
- While the crust bakes, mix together softened cream cheese, sour cream and ranch mix, and chop all the veggies.
- When the crust is completely cool, evenly spread on the dip, all the way to the edges.
- Sprinkle all those beautiful veggies on the entire crust.
- Finish it off with a generous sprinkle of cheddar cheese.
- Pat it down a little so everything stays in place and pop it in the fridge until it’s party time!
You can make this several hours ahead of time, even up to the day before! So convenient for party and holiday prep.
How do I make this recipe in advance?
1. Bake and cool the crescent roll crust and cover it with plastic wrap at room temp.
2. Chop the vegetables and store them in containers in the refrigerator.
3. Make the ranch spread and store it in a container in the refrigerator.
4. A few hours before you are ready to serve, just assemble the veggie pizza.
Don’t be nervous to make this an entire day before! It will still taste so so great 24 hours later!!!
How do I store the leftovers?
