Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 can crescent roll dough
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup bell peppers, diced
- 1 cup cucumbers, diced
- 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Prepare a large baking sheet by lightly greasing it or lining with parchment paper.
- Open the crescent roll dough and carefully unroll it onto the prepared baking sheet. Press the dough evenly to create a single rectangular crust, pinching together any perforations to create a smooth surface.
- Bake the crescent roll crust for 10-12 minutes or until it turns golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until smooth and well-blended.
- Once the crust has cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly across the entire surface, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Wash and dice the bell peppers, cucumbers, and green onions into small, uniform pieces.
- Sprinkle the chopped vegetables evenly over the cream cheese base, creating a colorful and vibrant topping.
- Slice the pizza into 8 equal squares and serve immediately. Can be served at room temperature or chilled.
