Layered Baked Pizza Dip
This layered baked pizza dip is gooey and cheesy warm from the oven. Takes just minutes to prepare too. Bake one today and enjoy the deliciousness!
Years ago when I lived in Atlanta, I was invited to a party and this was served. I couldn’t believe how delicious it was. Then, when I became a caterer, I called the person who had the party and she was happy to give me the recipe. I didn’t realize how simple the recipe is. You can add any toppings such as pepperoni, onions, peppers, you name it. Anything tastes good on the basic recipe. Have fun with it and enjoy every gooey, messy bite with your favorite cracker, chip or veggie.
