Dive into the creamy, dreamy world of Cottage Cheese Pizza Dip! This quirky twist on a pizza inspired dip is not only indulgently cheesy but also packed with protein that's guilt-free. Rich and creamy cottage cheese and mozzarella forms the luscious base, layered with zesty marinara, savory Italian seasonings, and a parmesan and pepperoni on top. Baked to perfection, this dip is perfect for gathering with friends or enjoying as a late-night snack.
Serve it warm with your favorite dippers like veggies, turkey pepperoni chips, or crisp parchment flat bread, and watch it disappear faster than you can say "slice of pizza!" Say goodbye to the heavy guilt and hello to a wholesome way to enjoy your pizza fix!
I heated mine up in the oven for a few minutes, but this could just as easily be tossed into the microwave for a bit as well and heated up that way for an even quicker way to dip!
