These Colorful Vegetable Cream Cheese Squares are a delightful appetizer that bursts with flavor and vibrant colors. Made with a flaky Pillsbury Crescent Roll crust, the squares are generously topped with a creamy mixture of colorful vegetables, cream cheese, and Uncle Dan's® Seasoning and Dip mix. The combination of crunchy vegetables, creamy cheese, and savory seasoning creates a mouthwatering treat that is perfect for parties, potlucks, or as a quick and easy snack. With a bit of grated cheese on top, these squares are not only delicious but also visually appealing. Refrigerating them for a few hours before serving allows the flavors to meld together for an even more satisfying experience.

Ingredients

  • 2 packages Pillsbury Crescent Rolls
  • 1/2 cup each of colorful vegetables of your choice: red cabbage, celery, carrots, broccoli, red & yellow bell peppers
  • 1/3 cup scallions
  • 2 (8 oz.) packages cream cheese (e.g., Philly Cream Cheese), softened
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 packages Uncle Dan's® Seasoning and Dip mix (Chipotle Ranch or Zesty Ranch)
  • 1/2 cup grated cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Unroll the 2 packages of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls onto a baking sheet, gently pressing the edges together to make one large crust.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 to 12 minutes until golden brown.
  4. Meanwhile, finely mince the colorful vegetables (red cabbage, celery, carrots, broccoli, red & yellow bell peppers) and set aside.
  5. In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, and Uncle Dan's® Seasoning and Dip mix until well combined.
  6. Stir in 2/3 of the minced vegetables into the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Once the crust has cooled slightly, spread the cream cheese mixture generously over the crust.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining minced vegetables on top of the cream cheese layer and gently pat them down.
  9. Garnish with a bit of grated cheese.
  10. Cut the crust with toppings into 1-1/2 to 2 inch squares.
  11. For best results, refrigerate the dish for 4 to 5 hours before serving.
