Ingredients
  

1 large tortilla wrap (whole wheat or regular)

8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 cup Greek yogurt

1 tbsp ranch seasoning mix

1 cup baby spinach, chopped finely

1 medium cucumber, diced into small cubes

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 bell pepper (any color), diced

1/2 cup shredded carrots

1/2 cup black olives, sliced

Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base: Lay the tortilla wrap flat on a large cutting board. For an added crunch, you may want to toast the tortilla in a skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes on each side until it's lightly golden. This step is optional but adds a nice texture.

    Mix the Spread: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the Greek yogurt and ranch seasoning mix. Use a hand mixer or whisk vigorously until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well blended.

      Assemble the Pizza: Evenly spread the cream cheese and yogurt mixture over the surface of the tortilla, making sure to leave a small border around the edges to prevent overflow.

        Add Vegetables: Begin layering by sprinkling the chopped spinach evenly on top of the cream cheese spread. Follow with the diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, diced bell pepper, shredded carrots, and sliced black olives, ensuring an even distribution for color and taste.

          Season: Sprinkle a pinch of salt and pepper over the vegetable layer to enhance the flavors. If desired, you can add a little extra ranch seasoning for an additional flavor boost.

            Cut into Squares: Using a sharp knife, carefully slice the tortilla into squares or triangles. Ensure that each piece has a good serving of the vibrant veggie toppings for maximum appeal.

              Chill: Arrange the cut pizza squares neatly on a serving platter. Cover them with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This chilling period allows the flavors to meld together beautifully.

                Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, garnish the top of the pizza squares with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and aroma. These chilled garden delight pizza squares make for a refreshing appetizer or light snack!
