Veggie Pizza Recipe With Mayo And Cream Cheese

This cold veggie pizza recipe starts with soft crescent dough as the crust and gets topped with a creamy cheesy ranch topping and loads of fresh, crisp veggies. This is one of those snacks that people can’t get enough of!

Okay, I’m aware that this recipe has been floating all over the dang internet for years now, but the thing is…I had never tried it.

Crescent

Then I showed up for a get together at my mother-in-law’s house and she had a huge platter of little veggie pizza squares. I eyed them suspiciously.

Crescent Dough – We use crescent dough sheets. They’re just one big sheet of dough without the perforations. If you can’t find those, regular crescent roll dough will work fine too.

Sauce – We’re combining softened cream cheese and mayo with ranch dip powder. It’s so creamy, loaded with flavor, and makes the perfect ‘sauce’ for this cream cheese veggie pizza.

Extras – We’ve heard from many readers that they add sliced black olives, red onions, and peppers to their pizza and also top it all with a layer of shredded cheddar. Personally, I think it’s perfect as I shared it, but feel free to add the extra cheese or any other veggies you might like.

This cold veggie pizza is super easy to prepare when using crescent dough sheets for the crust. It bakes up in no times and then it’s just a quick and easy mix of the cream cheese and ranch. And that’s what we really love most about this recipe – the ranch flavored cream cheese “pizza sauce”!

This cold veggie pizza recipe is best store in the refrigerator well covered for up to a day. Let it come to room temperature before serving for the best taste.

As much as I’d love to call this one health food, it does start with a can of processed dough and gets topped with cream cheese, mayonnaise, and packaged ranch seasoning. It’s probably not the healthiest choice, but it makes a great treat that still packs in some nutritious vegetables.

We put broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots on our veggie pizza, but peppers, onions, black olives, and cucumbers also make for a great topping. Many people top their pizza with shredded cheddar, too!

This cold veggie pizza is a total classic. It makes a great snack or appetizer and is easily halved or doubled.The crescent dough base is so soft and that cream cheese topping makes this one irresistible!

Crust – We like the dough sheets because they are just one uniform sheet of dough, but if you can’t find those, the crescent rolls will work just as well. Roll the dough out and press together the perforations to make one large sheet of dough.

Ranch Dip –If you’re sensitive to sodium, use the ranch seasoning powder in place of the ranch dip mix. The ranch seasoning has a lower sodium content and won’t be as salty.

Variations –Bell peppers, onions, cucumbers, and sliced black olives are all good toppings. Many people sprinkle shredded cheddar over the top, but we find it unnecessary with all of the cream cheese.

Storage – This may be stored, covered tightly, in the fridge for up to 24 hours. It’s best served fresh at room temperature.

Dill Cream Cheese And Veggie Pizza

I have been making this appetizer veggie pizza since I was in my early twenties. The first time I had this delicious finger food was at an office birthday party. I fell in love with this pizza’s crescent roll crust, flavored cream cheese, and fresh veggies.

Working in an office means lots of food any time someone celebrates a birthday. I remember the Accounts Payable Manager, Elaine, would bring her homemade spinach dip nestled in a hollow bread bowl. It always had hunks of bread strategically placed around it.

I love that this appetizer veggie pizza recipe is covered in fresh vegetables paired with a tasty flavored cream cheese. This cold veggie pizza is also very adaptable. You can change out the veggies as well as the flavor of the cream cheese. It’s one of my favorite veggie appetizers!

People love finger food and it’s ideal for parties at the office, bridal and baby showers, and potlucks and barbecues. In fact, this crescent roll veggie pizza has graced a few of my holiday tables as well. I just can’t think of a situation where this delicious appetizer won’t work!

I use broccoli, sweet peppers, shredded carrot and sliced scallions on my appetizer veggie pizza. I have seen versions with different vegetables and I think you could substitute whatever you enjoy most! Here are some suggestions:

This is a finger food appetizer. the vegetables are raw and crunchy so you’ll want them to be cut up pretty small. Wash all your vegetables then drain and dry with paper towels.

The recipe for appetizer veggie pizza likely originated with Pillsbury as a way to market their crescent rolls. Now they actually have crescent dough sheets so you don’t have to join all the crescent triangles together.

This appetizer veggie pizza is great for barbecues, showers, parties, and believe it or not, even as an after school snack! While this can certainly be considered an acceptable vegetarian appetizer, it’s not considered vegan.

People also love our Cucumber Sandwiches. I actually make them for Thanksgiving every year, and they are great for game day or bringing to the office. They make a delicious and addicting appetizer, and the same can be said with this Vegetable Rainbow Tart!

On two large baking sheets, roll out each tube of dough and stretch into rectangles. Pinch the seams together until smooth, then bake the crusts until golden brown.

Meanwhile, combine the softened cream cheese and Ranch dressing mix in a bowl. Divide in half and spread evenly onto the cooled crusts.

Cut the veggie crescent roll pizza into squares and refrigerate until you’re ready to serve. It’s fine to serve this immediately, but the flavors are better if it’s been chilled first.
