Layered Pizza Dip

  • 1 c. Ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 c. chopped Pepperoni
  • 4 oz. shredded Mozzarella cheese (about 1 cup)
  • 1 c. Prego Traditional Italian sauce, any variety
  • Garlic bread, crackers or corn tortilla chips
Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread the ricotta cheese in an even layer in a 9 inch pie plate. Top with 1/4 cup of the pepperoni and 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese.  Carefully spread the sauce over the cheese.  Sprinkle with the remaining pepperoni and mozzarella cheese.  Bake for 15 minutes or until it's hot.  Let stand for 5 minutes. Serve with the garlic bread, crackers or corn tortilla chips for dipping.

{Side note:
My sister who has been a live in nanny for us for the last few months has recently discovered an intolerance to gluten.  With this discovery, she has been bummed on having to cut out breads and many of her favorite foods.  Being a single college student, she is really going to miss pizza nights with friends.  THEN, we made up this tasty  pizza dip that just so happens to be gluten free.  It is an awesome pizza substitute. }

Brilliant! I'll have to try it! And tell Aimee gluten-free is hard at first, but you get used to it! It gets better!
