So I'm always looking for new items that I can take to various gatherings that don't take hours of preparations to make. My friends and I tend to bring Pizza and Hot Wing Dips to our parties, which are good, but they get a little monotonous after a while, so I thought, why not take some components of each and throw together a simple Pizza Dip for something different. I certainly do not claim to be the first person to dream up this concept, my goal is to give you the simplest and quickest recipe possible, and adding how you can easily tailor this recipe to your tastes to make it your own!

What you'll need:

1 Package of Cream Cheese 8 oz.

1 Package of Shredded Mozzarella Cheese 2 cups

1 Jar of Premade Pizza Sauce 12 oz

1 Small Bag of Pepperoni

How to Prepare:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Spread Cream Cheese in bottom of pie plate

3. Spread sauce over cream cheese evenly

4. Sprinkle cheese and pepperoni on top (mixed up is best).

5. Cook for 20 minutes, or until cheese is fully melted and sauce is bubbling - you're done!

Ways that you might want to consider to spice this up a bit:

Mix Ricotta Cheese in with the Cream Cheese for a calzone effect

Season the cream cheese with salt, pepper, oregano, or any Italian spices you like

Mix up the layers a bit so that the mozzarella cheese isn't one thick layer on top, it will make it easier for you to dip your chip or cracker later

Top the Pizza Dip just like any ordinary pizza with onions, peppers, sausage, mushrooms, or even pineapple and ham! I'd just be cautious when adding too much meat, as it will become very greasy. Also, be sure to strain or dry out your veggies beforehand so they don't water down the dip.

Switch up the cheese. If you aren't into mozzarella, you can use cheddar or American, or even blend in some Parmesan for some extra flavor.

Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, bagel slices, pita chips, or my favorite - sliced and toasted baguette.
