Cold Veggie Pizza

INGREDIENTS

2 tubes crescent roll sheets

12 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1/4 cup mayonnaise

1 tsp onion powder

3/4 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp dried dill

1 tsp dried parsley

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)

4-5 cups chopped or sliced veggies


INSTRUCTIONS 

Preheat oven to 375°F. Unroll each sheet of crescents on a half sheet pan, joining the seams in the center. Bake for 12-14 minutes or until crust is golden brown and puffy. Remove from oven and allow to cool.


Meanwhile, beat together the cream cheese, yogurt, mayo, onion powder, garlic, dill and parsley. Season to taste with salt and pepper.


Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust. Top with shredded cheese, if desired.

Sprinkle the veggies evenly over the crust and press them in a bit. Cover with saran wrap. Store in the fridge until ready to serve. The pizza will last for a few days but is best served within 2-8 hours.


Notes: Sour cream can be substituted for the Greek yogurt. If you can't find crescent sheets, you can substitute crescent rolls, but you will have to roll out the dough, so the seams are no longer visible. My favorite veggies to use are sliced mini bell peppers, chopped cucumbers, sliced and halved radishes, broccoli and quartered cherry tomatoes. The crust can be baked, cream cheese assembled, and veggies prepped in advance. I recommend waiting to assemble the pizza until two hours or less before serving.

Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the carrots are tender and lightly caramelized. Season and Finish: Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the orange juice and zest (if using) and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the glaze thickens and coats the carrots.
