Pepperoni Pizza Dip

This Pepperoni Pizza Dip is such an easy and fun appetizer! If you’ve got 20 minutes and a few simple ingredients, then get ready to dive into this cheesy goodness!

So, we’ve got a couple of hurricanes headed our way. Hurricane Iselle and Tropical Storm Julio are currently making their way towards the Hawaiian Islands. NBD.

We’ve been trying to prepare as best we can, considering we don’t really know what to expect. I’m not really much of a worrier when it comes to storms, but hurricane hysteria has kind of taken over the island, so I of course feel the need to join in the panic! Water is pretty much completely sold out, along with non-perishable food, batteries, etc. From what I’ve heard, we will mostly get a TON of rain and the power may go out. I’m hoping it doesn’t go out for long though. I need my internet! 😉

The Big Island, where we were at just a couple of weeks ago, is getting ready for the first hit. While hopefully both of these storms turn out to be a whole lotta nothin’, please keep all the folks living out here on the islands in your thoughts and prayers. Mahalo!

To take my mind off the impending storms, I decided to cook up a little Pepperoni Pizza Dip for us to snack on. Y’all THIS. IS. AMAZING. Seriously.

My son loves pizza; it’s his absolute favorite food. So when I combined it with his other favorite food (crackers 🙂 ) to make this Pepperoni Pizza Dip, he was in pizza heaven. Really, it’s so good and easy to make! It’s the perfect hot appetizer for a party or get-together, especially with football season coming up. I am counting down the days until August 30th when my Bulldogs take on Clemson! I can’t wait! Are you a football fan? If so, who are you looking forward to cheering on? Oh, and NO Gator fans allowed!! 😉 Awww, y’all know I’m just kiddin’.

So if y’all don’t hear from me for a few more days, it could be because we are out of power! I really hope that’s not the case, though. Send good vibes this way, y’all, and enjoy the pizza dip!
