Ingredients
- 8 oz mozzarella balls, drained
- 8 oz provolone cheese, sliced
- 8 oz cheddar cheese, sliced
- 1 cup marinated olives (green and Kalamata)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup roasted red peppers, sliced
- ½ cup artichoke hearts, marinated and chopped
- 1 package refrigerated crescent roll dough
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into individual triangles.
- On a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper, arrange the dough triangles in a circle with the points facing outward, leaving a small gap in the center.
- Layer the mozzarella balls, provolone slices, and cheddar slices inside the dough circle.
- Add the marinated olives, cherry tomato halves, roasted red pepper slices, and chopped artichoke hearts.
- Sprinkle fresh basil and parsley over the top.
- Carefully fold the dough points over the filling, forming a wreath shape. Ensure the filling stays inside.
- Drizzle olive oil over the dough and sprinkle with oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
- Allow to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with extra fresh herbs, if desired.
Notes
- Vegan option: Use dairy-free cheese and olive oil instead of butter.
- Spicy kick: Add chili flakes or sliced jalapeños for some heat.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-15 minutes or in the microwave for a quicker option.
