A family favorite, and often asked for appetizer (or dinner if you are like me and eat so much of it that you are stuffed full) is the following Pepperoni Pizza Dip. It is really good, and can be adjusted to fit your tastes. I would wager that you could also top it with other traditional pizza toppings if you like. We like it just they way it is here. This can also be made the night before and thrown in the oven right before serving.
PEPPERONI PIZZA DIP
8 oz softened cream cheese
½ cup sour cream
1 ½ cup pizza sauce (reserve ½ cup for topping)
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. crushed red pepper
½ tsp. garlic powder
1 cup mozzarella cheese
sliced pepperoni--quartered
Mix together cream cheese, sour cream, 1 cup pizza sauce, oregano, red pepper and garlic powder until smooth.
Place in oven safe dish and top with remaining pizza sauce. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes. Add sliced pepperoni and mozzarella cheese, bake for another 5-10 minutes or until cheese is melted.
Serve with tortilla chips, bread sticks, or sliced green peppers.
