    Healthy Crescent Roll Veggie Pizza Appetizer

    This light and refreshing crescent roll veggie pizza appetizer has a crispy crust smothered in a zesty cream cheese mixture and topped with fresh, crunchy vegetables.

    It is a fun summer recipe for kids to get them to eat their veggies! This healthy appetizer is quick and easy to make so it makes a great last minute party food idea too. Serve it at summer potlucks, summer cookouts, and 4th of July BBQs to help everyone cool off on a hot summer day.

    Basically, this recipe is like veggies with ranch dip on top of a buttery crescent roll! If you are in a real hurry, you could even substitute chive and onion spreadable cream cheese or veggie dip (I would really recommend the Marzetti brand) in place of the cream cheese mixture that I used.

    It’s also a great way to use up extra vegetables that you have at the bottom of your produce drawer. You can pick any vegetables that you want to add — whatever you have on hand will work just fine! It’s totally customizable. Fair warning, I really loaded mine up with extra vegetables (because I love vegetables!), but if you want less, just reduce the amount listed in the recipe by about one fourth.

    Crescent Roll Veggie Pizza Appetizer Ingredients:

    • crescent roll dough sheet (you could also use pizza dough in place of the crescent)
    • assorted chopped veggies
    • reduced fat cream cheese
    • light sour cream (sub for plain greek yogurt to make this even healthier)
    • dry ranch dressing mix
    • garlic powder
    • shredded cheese (I used sharp cheddar, but mild, cheddar jack or something similar will work as well)
    • green onions
