veggie pizza appetizer

This is a vegan-ized version of one my family's classic snacks, this was the go-to dish for my parents to bring to work parties,and it was a favorite snack at all our family holiday dinners. I made this for one of my work functions a couple of years ago, in my pre-vegan days. Someone requested that I make it again... so I decided to makeover the recipe. It really didn't taste any different than I remember, and I remember it being TASTY!

Here's what I did:

ingredients:
-2 packages refrigerated crescent rolls (the reduced fat version is vegan, full of weird ingredients, but vegan still)
-1 tub Tofutti cream cheese
-1/3 c. Vegenaise
-1 small red onion- finely diced
-about 1 c. fresh broccoli- cut into really small florets
-about 1 c. grated carrot
-about 1 c. tomato (i used cut up yellow and red cherry tomatoes)
-1/2 c. vegan parmesan cheese (i used 'almesan' from the veganomicon)

Roll out the crescent rolls onto baking sheet, meet end to end to form a pizza crust, bake according to package instructions. Allow to cool completely.

Mix together the creamcheese, vegenaise and onion. Spread mixture on the crust.

Arrange veggies on top, sprinkle with 'cheese.'

Tastes best after being refrigerated overnight.
