Do you love a cheesy pizza? If so, you will surely love this Pepperoni Pizza Dip! This dip is made with high quality marinara sauce and three cheeses for an ooey gooey delicious appetizer! As an added bonus, it’s low-carb and keto-friendly!
Have you ever tried a pasta sauce that is just so darn delicious that you want to add it to everything? A few brands that I really love are Mezzetta Napa Valley Homemade Pasta Sauces & Rao’s Homemade Marinara.
They are both delicious and hearty sauces that are made with quality ingredients. But, if you are on the keto diet, the Rao’s Marinara is the way to go! It is low in sugar & carbs!
For this Pepperoni Pizza Dip, you will want to use a quality marinara or pasta sauce, because a good sauce “makes” this kind of dip.
My kids even dubbed this pizza dip as Mom’s famous Cheesy Pepperoni Pizza Dip. This dip is very cheesy, and is a perfect appetizer or party snack. It contains three cheeses which make is perfect for anyone who loves ooey, gooey cheesy goodness.
My kids and husband call this my famous dip because it really is all the goodness of a pizza in a crustless form. When my daughter who has a gluten allergy craved pizza, I made this just for her.
You can serve this dip with homemade breadsticks, bagel chips, or any sort of thick chips.
