What to serve with this pizza dip?
This dip is great for dipping so many things! Some of our favorites are baguette slices, pita chips, tortilla chips and bagel chips. For a healthy twist you can dip bell peppers, or celery! Mini peppers are perfect for dipping and taste great with the pizza flavors. It is also great scooped onto chunks of garlic bread, pita bread or with bread sticks!

Yes! We love the tasty flavor of classic pepperoni pizza but you can add all your favorite toppings to this dip to create a flavor combination you love! Some of my favorites are black olives, green pepper, or bacon! Just add your favorite pizza toppings to the top of the dip before baking!
Can I use different cheeses?
Mozzarella and parmesan are classics for this cheesy pepperoni pizza dip but if you’d like you can use different kinds of cheese! Cheddar adds a tasty flavor to this dip and provolone adds a bit of smokiness! Use your favorite cheeses to create an easy appetizer full of cheesy goodness!
Help I can’t find mini pepperoni-
No worries! Mini pepperoni is perfect for this dip because it is small and scoops out well. However if you can’t find it you can easily swap it for regular sized pepperoni. You’ll just want to chop the pepperoni so that you have smaller pieces. I like to cut it into fourths for the perfect size. You can also do this if you prefer turkey pepperoni because they don’t make it in the mini size!
