Ranch Veggie Pizza

I can’t say it’s super healthy. It does have cream cheese, mayonnaise, and crescent rolls. But, there’s lots of veggies! So that has to count for something, right? You can used reduced fat cream cheese {like I did} and even reduced fat mayonnaise.

• 2 {8 oz.} packages refrigerated crescent rolls
• 2 {8 oz} packages cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tsp. dried dill weed
• 1 package ranch dressing mix
• 1 cup fresh broccoli, chopped small
• 1 cup fresh cauliflower, chopped small
• 1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
• 1 cup bell pepper, diced {yellow would be pretty}
• 1 cup shredded carrots
• 1 cup shredded cheese

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan and unwrap crescent dough. Roll dough out onto baking sheet and press seams together for pizza crust. Bake for 12 minutes, remove from oven and allow to cool completely.

In a small mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, mayonnaise, ranch dressing mix, dill weed and stir together until well mixed.

Spread cream cheese mixture onto cooled pizza crust. Top with veggies. Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.

Chill for 1 hour before serving, or serve at room temperature. I like it both ways! Slice into 3 inch squares or about 4 x 2 inch rectangles for easy serving.
