Ingredients
Scale
Crescent Roll Dough:
- 2 cans refrigerated crescent roll dough
Cream Cheese Mixture:
- 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- ½ cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
Veggie Toppings:
- 1 cup broccoli florets (finely chopped)
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- ½ cup red bell pepper (diced)
- ½ cup cucumber (diced)
- ¼ cup red onion (finely chopped)
- Optional: shredded cheddar cheese for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the crescent roll dough and press it into the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking sheet, sealing any seams. Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden brown.
- Prepare Cream Cheese Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, sour cream, dill, garlic powder, and salt until smooth and well combined.
- Assemble the Pizza: Once the crust is cool, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the surface. Top with chopped broccoli, carrots, bell pepper, cucumber, and red onion. Sprinkle with cheddar cheese if using. Gently press the veggies into the cream cheese layer so they stick.
- Chill and Serve: Chill the assembled pizza for 30 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.
Notes
