Crisp Mediterranean flavors dance through these Greek veggie pizza squares, blending zesty herbs and fresh vegetables on a perfectly golden crust. Savory bites invite hungry diners to explore classic Greek ingredients with a playful, satisfying twist you’ll crave.


Ingredients

Scale

Base:

  • 1 tube (8 ounces / 226 grams) refrigerated crescent roll dough

Cream Cheese Spread:

  • ½ cup plain Greek yogurt or sour cream
  • 4 ounces (113 grams) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt & pepper, to taste

Toppings:

  • ½ cup diced cucumber
  • ½ cup diced tomatoes (seeded)
  • ⅓ cup sliced black olives
  • ⅓ cup diced red onion
  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 375F (190C), then carefully spread the crescent dough across a baking sheet, gently pressing the seams together to create a uniform rectangular base.
  2. Bake the dough until it transforms into a golden-brown foundation, approximately 10-12 minutes, then allow it to cool completely at room temperature.
  3. Combine the Greek yogurt, cream cheese, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl, whisking until the mixture achieves a silky, homogeneous consistency.
  4. Using a spatula, evenly distribute the creamy blend across the cooled crescent crust, ensuring complete and consistent coverage.
  5. Artfully arrange the cucumber, tomatoes, olives, red onion, and feta cheese atop the cream layer, creating a vibrant and colorful Mediterranean-inspired landscape.
  6. Optional: Delicately sprinkle chopped parsley over the assembled pizza for an added burst of fresh herbal flavor and visual appeal.
  7. Slice the pizza into neat, bite-sized squares and serve immediately for optimal taste and texture, or refrigerate briefly to enhance the flavors.

Notes

  • Adapt dough for gluten-free diets by using alternative crescent roll brands or making a cauliflower crust base for a lower-carb option.
  • Prep vegetables ahead of time to reduce day-of cooking stress and ensure crisp, fresh toppings that won’t make the crust soggy.
  • Pat cucumber and tomatoes dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture and prevent a watery topping that could compromise the pizza’s texture.
  • Customize toppings based on personal preferences or seasonal availability, such as adding roasted bell peppers or swapping feta for a dairy-free cheese alternative.
