Tips for working with Refrigerated Dough
- For this recipe you're going to want to use crescent rolls and not the newer crescent roll sheet dough. I find that the sheet dough doesn't give you a big enough surface as you get with the crescent rolls.
- After you press the crescent rolls together, use a pastry roller to make sure the seams are completely sealed. This will help ensure the crust bakes as one full sheet.
- Make sure you take the time to properly chill the pizza before serving. You can press the plastic wrap into the top layer of the veggie pizza to get the veggies to adhere better to the cream cheese/mayonnaise layer.

Substitutions and Variations
- Instead of mayo, you can use sour cream. You can even split the amount called for with half mayo and half sour cream.
- Use your favorite veggies! Like tomatoes? Dice some up to add on top. Diced cucumber would also be a great addition.
- Shredded cheddar cheese on top is another popular addition!
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step 2: Spread the crescent rolls out onto a baking sheet, and press the seams together. Prick the dough with a fork so air bubbles don't form when baking. Bake for about 10 minutes, then set aside and cool.
Expert Tip
Don't underbake the crescent rolls or you'll end up with a soggy crust when you add the cream cheese mixture and veggies.
Step 3: Combine softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and ranch dressing mix with a mixer.
Step 4: Use a spatula to spread an even layer of the mixture onto the baked dough.
Step 5: Top the pizza with broccoli, carrots, bell peppers, and chives. Cover with plastic wrap and allow to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
Step 6: Cut into squares and enjoy!

Storing and Reheating Tips
Refrigerator: If you have any leftovers, wrap the pieces in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container for up to 3-4 days.
Freezer: I do not recommend freezing this recipe. The textures will be altered in the freezer.
Top Tip
- Make sure your cream cheese is softened so combines easily with the other ingredients and spreads evenly onto the crescent roll crust.
- Press the veggies into the cream cheese mixture so the toppings stay on when you eat it. A good time to do this is when you cover it with plastic wrap to chill. Press down on the pizza while it's covered.

Yes! You can make it up to a day in advance. In fact, it tastes even better once it's had a chance to chill.
You can also prepare the "sauce" and veggies ahead of time and store in airtight containers separately. Assemble an hour or two in advance for a crispier crust.
If you want to skip the mixing of the sauce to make this recipe even faster, use a Chive and Onion Cream Cheese Spread.

Pillsbury Crescent Roll Veggie Pizza
Ingredients
- 2 8 ounce tubes refrigerated crescent rolls
- 2 8 ounce packages cream cheese
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 1 1 ounce package powdered ranch dressing mix or 2 tablespoons of my Homemade Ranch Seasoning Mix
- ½ cup grated broccoli
- ½ cup grated carrots
- ½ cup finely chopped red bell pepper
- ½ cup finely chopped yellow bell pepper
- ¼ cup thinly sliced chives
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare and chop the vegetables as described in the ingredients list.
- Take the crescent roll dough out of its packaging and unravel both rolls onto a baking sheet (you may need to puzzle piece the parts of the roll together to get it to fill the whole sheet). Push the seams together so it forms one layer. Then prick the crescent roll dough with a fork so air bubbles do not form while baking.
- Bake the dough for about 10 minutes, then set it aside to cool.
- Add the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and ranch dressing mix to a stand mixer bowl and cream them together. Using a baking spatula, spread an even layer of the mixture onto the baked crescent roll dough.
- Cover the cream cheese layer with the grated broccoli, grated carrots, chopped bell peppers, and sliced chives.
- Wrap the top of the veggie pizza with plastic wrap and allow it to chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. Cut into squares and serve.
