About

For those who haven’t experienced the wonders of pizza dip –  imagine a gooey layer of garlicky, herbed cream cheese, then a layer of marinara sauce and green peppers, topped with mozzarella cheese and all your favorite pizza toppings.  We like jalapenos!  Toss the bowl in the middle of the table, give chips for dipping, and you've got one pretty amazing Super Bowl snack.  When that bowl runs out, they'll cry harder than when their team loses.
