For the holidays and for parties, we always need recipes that can be made ahead and kept aside. Make this Pizza Dip ahead of time and bake it right before you are ready to serve it. You’ll have your family and guests licking their fingers. It is also perfect for the winter season when you want a warm dip to compensate for the cold outside. And it’s cheese…who does not like cheese?
Ingredients:
Cream Cheese
Spaghetti Sauce/ Pizza Sauce/ Marinara Sauce
Mozzarella Cheese
Canned Sliced Mushrooms
Sliced Jalapenos Peppers
Sliced Black Olives
(or any other pizza topping you prefer)
Method:
1. Allow the Cream Cheese to come to room temperature.
2. Choose a oven safe dish to bake and serve the Pizza Dip.
3. Spread a layer of Cream Cheese at the bottom of the dish (approx 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick)
4. Spread the sauce (Marinara / Spaghetti / Pizza Sauce) evenly over the cream cheese .
5. Top the sauce with a layer of Mozzarella (or Pizza) Cheese.
6. The next layer is your choice of Meats (cooked) or Vegetables (canned Mushrooms, Onions, Bell Pepper, Olives, Jalapenos etc)
7. Bake in the preheated oven at 180 degrees C or 350 degrees F.
8. Look for the cheese to melt and start bubbling and a few brown spots.
9. Serve hot with tortilla chips.

Hi!
I live in India and stumbled on your website when searching for some recipes. They’re really easy to follow and make for a beginner like me! I was wondering if you could tell me a good substitute for cream cheese which is easily available in India since the imported ones here are extremely expensive. I’d be willing to try a simple recipe for making it too if you post one!

Hi Nusrat,
Before you bake the dip, it can stay in the fridge for a few days. After you bake it, you can store it in the fridge for about a week and reheat it. Just heat until the cheese becomes bubbly again.

Hi Vilma,
You can’t go wrong with Philadelphia brand cream cheese but we’ve had pretty good luck with our local store brand (Kroger) as well.

Hi Nirali,
Usually, cream cheese is not used on pizza. You can use mozzarella cheese. There is no good substitute for paneer. Some people use tofu but it does not taste like paneer. If your paneer falls apart, you can try to either deep fry it first or pan fry it so that the sides become harder and will hold shape.
