How to Make Veggie Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Unroll one package (8 oz) of refrigerated crescent roll dough and press into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
  3. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown, according to package directions.
  4. Let the crust cool completely.
  5. While the crust cools, prepare the veggie topping: In a medium bowl, combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 packet (1 ounce) ranch dressing mix, and 4 ounces cream cheese (softened). Mix until smooth.
  6. Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crescent roll crust.
  7. Top with your favorite vegetables! Suggestions include: 1 cup shredded carrots, 1 cup chopped broccoli florets, 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers (any color), 1/2 cup chopped celery, 1/4 cup chopped red onion.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the bars to firm up.
  9. Cut into bars and serve chilled. Enjoy!
