Quick Pizza Dip
Need a quick dip idea for the holidays? Want something new? Try this Pizza Dip. We used to take this to the high school when my husband was helping with a Bible study. The school obeyed the law and allowed for students to elect Bible study as a class, but they had to take it during lunch. So I often made this. Everyone looked forward to this treat.
