Greek food has got to be one of my favorite cuisines. Mediterranean food in general relies on so many fresh ingredients and flavorful spices that it seems like almost every dish brings some of that summer flavor to every meal. These Greek Veggie Pizza Squares are topped with tons of fresh veggies and have a creamy sauce instead of a traditional tomato pizza sauce. All this to say that it makes an irresistible dinner.

It’s super easy to double this recipe (you might need to- it goes fast) since the ingredients call for half a brick of cream cheese, half a package of puff pastry dough, and part of the juice of 1 lemon. Double those ingredients and chop some extra veggies and you’ve got twice the tasty pizza squares ready for dinner.

The base of these squares is some puff pastry. You only need to roll it out a bit then mark a border along the edge with a butter knife- but don’t cut all the way through. Then use a fork to poke holes in the center. The holes keep the dough from puffing up and so it puffs at the edges, creating a crust.

The border makes a defined well for the toppings to go into, and there are a lot of toppings! This dish is packed with flavorful veggies just like your favorite Mediterranean dishes.

There’s no tomato sauce for this recipe. Instead the sauce is a creamy blend of sour cream and cream cheese that’s seasoned just right. It gives the flavors of tzatziki sauce, but with less moisture. This is important since we don’t want our squares to be soggy in the centers.

A generous topping of crumbled feta cheese also adds to the flavor and the result is not unlike a Greek salad with a flaky crust instead of a bed of greens.

While the recipe as is turns out a big rectangle, I could also see making this recipe into wonderful appetizers by using those puff pasty mini cups that are already par-baked. Either way you can’t go wrong with these delicious Greek Veggie Pizza Squares.
