This dip, honest to goodness, is one of the most delicious things I have ever had the pleasure of consuming. It’s cheese, layered with cheese, topped with marinara, add more cheese and then finish with your favorite pizza toppings. There is absolutely no way this could go wrong. (Okay, maybe someone could mess it up but they’d have to try really hard doing so.)
My toppings were modeled after Pizza Hut’s super supreme (minus the Italian sausage). Sticky said it was like eating pizza and lasagna at the same time. That’s the dream right? When you make your own version (because you are making this, you must) be creative as you want with your toppings. If you need to please a large crowd you could whip up two. One for the carnivores and another for the veg-heads.
Come armed with this bad boy on Super Bowl Sunday and you won’t have to worry about toting leftovers home!
