Notes

Cooking for one? Feeel free to halve this recipe. Just use one tube of crescent dough and an 8 X 10 baking sheet (or just unroll the dough in the middle of a large pan.) You'll only need one block of cream cheese and be sure to reduce all the herbs and spices by half.
Feel free to play around with the veggies. Add cauliflower, red onions or green onions. Skip the cucumbers. Add olives. You really can customize this recipe with any of your favorite veggies.
