If one of your resolutions is to eat more veggies then add this recipe to your list! Veggie ranch pizza is made with a Pillsbury crescent crust, ranch-flavored cream cheese, and lots of fresh vegetables. This would be great to take to lunch and of course, it’s a good appetizer for any Super Bowl party. The first time I ever had this pizza was at work for treat day.

Back when I worked at my desk job I was part of the treat day group. Everyone took turns bringing snacks for everyone (it would always be on Thursdays) and one guy would always bring this veggie ranch pizza. His wife made it all the time for us and it was delicious. I just love all the fresh vegetables on top. This veggie pizza is also best served cold!

How to make Weight Watchers Veggie Ranch Pizza

Step 3: Remove crescent rolls from the cans and roll out in one big piece onto a large, greased cookie sheet. Pinch seams together, if needed. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool.

Tips for Veggie Ranch Pizza

Here’s a quick tip I learned when I worked at the hotel doing cold salad prep. You can soften cream cheese in the microwave. 8oz takes no longer than a minute to soften and check it after every 30 seconds.

What vegetables go good with this pizza? Fresh vegetables are ALWAYS best with this pizza. If you use frozen vegetables they might get mushy. I always like to use a combo of broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots. Cauliflower, radishes, green onions, and cucumbers would even be with this pizza.

If you want all the vegetables to be the same size use a food processor to chop them up.

Don’t like dry ranch seasoning? Use taco or fajita seasoning.
