Chilled Pepperoni Pizza Dip
This chilled pizza dip is so delicious and the perfect make-ahead game day appetizer. Crispy pepperoni, provolone and fontinella come together to give this the ultimate pizza flavor. We love it!
Ingredients
- ½ cup pepperoni slices
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup diced roasted red peppers
- ¼ cup diced scallions
- 1 teaspoon dried italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
- 1 ½ cups finely grated sharp provolone
- 1 ½ cups finely grated fontinella
- ½ cup parmesan cheese
- crackers, chips, pretzels, veggies, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place a sheet of parchment paper on a baking sheet.
- Place the pepperoni in a single layer. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until crispy. Remove from the oven and transfer the pepperoni to a paper towel to drain excess grease. Once it’s cool, crumble or chop it.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the mayo, peppers, scallions, italian seasoning, and red pepper. Stir in the cheese with a spatula until it is fully combined. Taste the dip and season with a pinch of salt and pepper if needed - the cheese will be salty so it might not be necessary!
- At this point you can serve it immediately or place it in a sealed container with a fridge until ready to use! This is great when it’s made ahead of time. And it lasts for about 4 or 5 days in the fridge.
