Basically all we do all day is try to figure out how to get more pizza into our lives. It is, without question, the one food we at Delish never get tired of. And frankly, we're not snobs: We're as happy to take a slice from the hole-in-the-wall down the street as we are one with a hot dog crust. We're also fine just MacGyver-ing a make-shift pizza oven in the event that we can't find a pizzeria nearby.

The problem is, sometimes you want pizza, but you're actually making something else for dinner. And most people (read: most people who don't work for Delish) would find it weird if you ordered a pre-dinner pie. ​We have found a work-around: pizza dip. 

It's pizza in dip form. Softened cream cheese, with mozzarella and Parmesan spread on top, and then layered with sauce and pepperoni (you could put whatever you wanted on top...artichokes? sliced olives? another pizza?!). Serve it with crusty bread, and you're done. No one gets weirded out; everyone gets more pizza. Win, win.
