Pepperoni Pizza Dip

Anita needed something to take to work for a pitch-in. I dug up this recipe over at The Cutting Edge of Ordinary.

Although the dip is pretty good, it is pretty salty to us, so serve with low-salt crackers or bread instead of tortilla chips. I also think it could use some heat, so I might add some chopped jalapeños the next time I make it.

Where I thought this dip really worked was as a stuffing for baked potatoes. It was super good! Just cook a couple of bakers, load them up with the warm dip and top with sour cream and cheese. Yummy!
