Provided by Kelly Senyei

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 (8-oz.) packages refrigerated crescent rolls
2 (8-oz.) packages cream cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (1-oz.) package powdered Original Ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup grated broccoli
1/2 cup grated cauliflower
1/2 cup grated carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped tomatoes (seeds removed)
1/2 cup chopped scallions

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • Unroll the crescent rolls onto a nonstick baking sheet, separating the dough and arranging it in a single layer covering the entire baking sheet. Press together the perforations, and then using a fork, prick the dough all over. Bake the dough for 10 minutes until golden brown then remove it from the oven and allow it to cool completely.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise and Ranch dressing mix. Using a handheld mixer, blend together the ingredients until smooth and creamy. (Alternately, beat the ingredients together in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.)
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the completely cooled baking sheet of crescent rolls, covering the entire surface in an even layer.
  • Sprinkle the grated broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, tomatoes and scallions on top of the cream cheese then place a piece of parchment paper or wax paper on top and lightly press down the veggies. Cover the baking sheet securely with plastic wrap and refrigerate the bars for a minimum of one hour and up to overnight.
  • When ready to serve, slice the sheet into bars and serve.
