Crescent Roll Pizza Recipe Variations

  • Veggies: The veggies listed in the recipe below are my personal preference. You can use whatever veggies you’d like. Just use 2 cups worth of veggies as a guide. Other veggie ideas: sliced cherry tomatoes, snap peas, chopped artichoke hearts, cauliflower, sliced radishes, and even olives!
  • Make Ahead: To make this recipe ahead of time, I suggest baking the crust, making the cream cheese mixture, and chopping all the veggies and storing each separately until you’re ready to assemble and serve.

Crescent Roll Veggie Pizza Storage

SERVE: As with most recipes with dairy products in them, you shouldn’t leave this out for longer than 2 hours. 

STORE: An assembled pizza will keep covered in the refrigerator, for up to 3 hours. Any longer and the crust will start to get soggy.

FREEZE: This pizza does not freeze and defrost well. Therefore, I do not suggest freezing it.

MAKE AHEAD: An assembled crescent roll veggie pizza will keep, covered in the refrigerator, for up to 3 hours. Any longer and the crust will start to get soggy.

    I love this recipe and have made it for years. I always get my veggies from the salad bar. You get such a variety and it doesn’t cost as much as buying all the separate veggies.

    1. Hi Carolyn, this is such a great time-saving tip!
      Thanks for stopping by,

      Jillian

  6. I love this idea. You can’t go wrong with all the fresh veggies.

  7. My mother in law (now passed on to our Heavenly Father) made this exact recipe, as you have it.
    She made it for every family gathering, of any kind. I so looked forward to eating just this, the way
    she made it; absolute divinity! The sneaky ole’ gal would not share her recipe with anyone, which
    made it all the better for no one knowing her secret recipe. After she left us, I found her recipe card
    for it, now I’m the bearer at gatherings with this wonderful appetizer, and continue the tradition!
