Veggie Pizza

PROM is finally here!

Today is daughter #2's prom.  She is going with a group of 11 highschoolers, 9 girls and 2 guys.  We are taking pictures at one of the girl's houses at 5:30 pm.  When the kids head to dinner after pictures are concluded, we parents are having hors d'oeuvres.  I decided to make something I've had countless times before, but I've never actually made-- Veggie Pizza!  I found a few different recipes and kind of put them all together to make my version.

VEGGIE PIZZA

INGREDIENTS
16 oz crescent roll (2 cans)
16 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 package dry ranch dressing (1 oz.)
¼ cup mayonnaise
½ cup green pepper, chopped
½ cup red pepper, chopped
1 cup broccoli, chopped
½ cup green onions, finely chopped
½ cup carrots, finely chopped
¾ cup cheddar & monterey jack cheese, shredded

CRUST:


Unroll crescent rolls and pat into a 15 ½ x 10 ½ x 2 inch cookie pan. Bake for 10 minutes at the temperature indicated on the package. Let cool

SPREAD:
Mix cream cheese, mayo & dry ranch mix.

Spread over the cooled crust.
VEGGIE LAYERS:

Fresh veggies of your choice! Any raw vegetables work nicely.
 
Mushrooms!  As you know, one of my favorite foods!

Chopped red & green peppers.

Chopped mushrooms & carrots!

Chopped green onions
.
Chopped brocolli florets.


Sprinkle chopped vegetables and cheese on top of crust spread with cream cheese mixture.  I gently pushed the veggies into the cream cheese mixture.

Cut into small squares and serve.


Enjoy!
