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 jalapeƱos 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!

1/2 cup green onions, chopped
1 (6 oz) can black olives, chopped
1 (6 oz) jar green olives with pimento, chopped

* Place the pepperoni on paper towels and microwave for 30 seconds to reduce the amount of grease.

4. Spread ingredients into a 9x13 greased baking dish and bake for 25-30 minutes.
