Chicken Ranch Vegetable Pizza Recipe

Barbara adapted the classic recipe for the cream cheese vegetable bars that we have all seen at cookouts and family gatherings by adding her Easiest Grilled Chicken Ever.

She found the original recipe in her new favorite cookbook – Extension Homemakers Shelby County 1988. It’s from Mrs. Beulah Thurston of the Merry Mixers club.

How to Make Classic Veggie Pizza with Chicken:

For the full instructions for Chicken Ranch Veggie Pizza, scroll to the bottom of this post.

Instructions:

  1. Spread crescent dough in a 9×13 inch pan, and bake; let cool.
  2. Mix cream cheese, Miracle Whip, and ranch; add vegetables.
  3. Spread over crescent dough.
  4. Top with cooked chicken and cheese. Refrigerate before serving.

Notes About Classic Veggie Pizza with Chicken:

  • This is a great way to use up leftovers of the Easiest Grilled Chicken Ever – just cube up a couple of already cooked chicken breasts. Or buy a rotisserie chicken and use that!
  • The “crust” of this pizza is a package of refrigerated crescent roll dough. Did you know they sell crescent rolls in sheets that are perfect for this recipe? You can also use a regular tube of crescent roll dough. Just be sure to spread it across the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan – the dough will be fairly thin so the baking time is fairly short, just 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Once the crust is baked and cooled, spread the topping so it almost touches the edges. Barbara suggests using a flat-bottomed spatula for spreading the cream cheese – the same tool used to ice a cake.
  • Then top it with the cubed grilled chicken and shredded cheese (what about some bacon too?) and refrigerate it overnight.
  • If you love Classic Veggie Pizza with Crescent Crust, try our other favorite recipes using crescent rolls including Chicken Crescent Bake and Quick Cinnamon Rolls.
