Pizza Dip

Pizza Dip

Pizza Dip! Lately, I’ve been on the search for some good Superbowl Party Dips.  I was looking for something familiar but different and when I saw this recipe I knew I had found it.  And, It’s brilliant someone turned the familiar taste of a Pizza into a dip.  Genius.  It really does taste like Pizza on a chip.  With tons of cheeses like Mozzarella, Parmesan, and Cream Cheese seasoned with Italian Spices. Black Olives, Bell Peppers and sliced Red Onions  Finally a Marinara sauce and Pepperoni on top.  This recipe is sure to be a winner.

It’s best served on a Crustini, but a good sturdy chip will work as well. You might consider making two recipes if you have a large crowd because this dip will not last long. It’s that good.

Pizza Dip! I really do hope you give this recipe a try soon. And, please let me know what you think in the comments below.
