Football-Shaped Stuffed Breadsticks

Heat oven to 425°F.

Reserve 4 oz. cream cheese for later use. Mix remaining cream cheese with dressing and garlic powder in medium bowl until blended. Add spinach, peppers, shredded cheese and bacon; mix well.

Unroll pizza dough onto lightly floured cutting board; press into 16x14-inch rectangle. Spread cream cheese mixture into 14x8-inch oval shape on center of dough. Fold dough over cream cheese mixture to completely enclose cream cheese mixture. Press edges of dough together to seal.

Cover dough with large sheet of parchment, then baking sheet; flip over. Gently press top of dough to even out surface of football. Starting about 2 inches from both ends of football, make 2-inch-long cuts, 1 inch apart, along both long sides of dough. Gently twist dough strips. Beat egg and water until blended; brush onto dough.

Bake 25 to 28 min. or until golden brown. Cool 5 min. Spoon reserved cream cheese into resealable plastic bag. Cut small piece off one bottom corner of bag; use to pipe cream cheese onto top of football for the laces.
