Super Easy Pizza Dip

Blend the delicious comfort food tastes of pizza with the idea of a fun easy dip for French bread to create the perfect appetizer: pizza dip!

Jump to Recipe

Pizza has been one of my comfort foods for as long as I can remember. Every Friday night was pizza night growing up. When I was pregnant with Tyler, I craved so much pizza! We still order pizza out when it’s spirit night for the elementary school but otherwise, I make it myself.

We’ve made traditional pizza a lot. Sometimes I make homemade dough in the bread machine, other times I buy a pizza crust or ready-made dough. I’ve made pizza burgers and pizza flatbread. We tried taco pizza and sausage kale pizza. In college, we made homemade pizza bagels for at least one meal per week.

As you can see, pizza is a hit around the Lynch household. I also love dips of any kind and eat them as a meal. Pizza dip came about for my desire to have a dip while also wanting the taste of pizza!

Super Easy Pizza Dip Leftovers

If you have leftover pizza dip (spoiler alert: we didn’t have any leftovers!), you can store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container. I feel like this is a dip that would be good cold as well as warm, so it’s up to you if you reheat it or not.

    Now that does sound tasty. It sounds like a great dip to make and put out when entertaining. It sounds like it’s packed with flavour with the different cheeses plus chives etc too.

    I printed the recipe and will be trying it this weekend for a party we are having for my son. Thanks for sharing, never heard of this and it does look super easy and yummy.

  3. How have I never thought of this! I’ve dipped bread into sauce many times and even cheesy bread into sauce. This is such a great idea!
