Pizza Dip Scores Big
| January 19, 2016 | Appetizers, Snacks, Italian
If you like pizza, you’re going to love this Pizza Dip!
This is an amazing party appetizer that people will go crazy over. It’s baked in a pie plate to give it the look of a pizza too. With that in mind, feel free to put your favorite pizza toppings on it. Maybe some mushrooms, pepperoni, olives and cheese, cheese and more cheese. Whatever appeals to your pizza loving taste buds.
As Kevin suggests, I would serve this masterpiece with some toasted, garlic rubbed baguette slices to scoop up all that melted cheese goodness.
This over the top dip will definitely score big at your next party. Enjoy!
