Whip up this quick and easy Veggie Bars recipe topped with chopped carrots, peppers, tomatoes, onions

Ingredients

2 packages of crescent rolls
2/3 cup chopped red pepper
2/3 cup chopped cauliflower
2/3 cup chopped carrots
2/3 cup chopped broccoli
1/3 cup chopped scallions
2 (8-oz.) packages of light cream cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
1 package of Original Ranch Dressing (powdered mix)

Instructions

Pre-heat the oven to 350 °F.
Unroll the crescent dough so that the pieces are lying flat on a cookie sheet. Press the seams together and use a rolling pin to stretch the dough to the sides of the pan.
Bake the crescent rolls for 10 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown. Let it cool.
Beat together the cream cheese, mayonnaise and Ranch Dressing powder in a small bowl.
Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the cooled crescent pastry.
Sprinkle each type of veggie over the mixture, evenly coating the entire pastry and lightly pressing it into the cream cheese.
Cover the sheet securely with plastic wrap and store in fridge.
When ready to serve, slice into bars and serve.
Kelly's Notes: Place the chopped peppers on a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess moisture before adding them to the veggie bars.
