Her Pizza Dip recipe is perfect for game day

Before the 2020 Super Bowl, Teigen shared the recipe for her Pizza Dip on the Cravings by Chrissy Teigen website. And in a tweet, she encouraged fans to add the recipe to their game day menu.

“Imagine if you took a piping-hot delivery pepperoni pizza and slid it off its crust into a skillet, kept it warm and gooey, then served it with crunchy garlicky bread toasts,” the recipe description reads. “That’s basically what this pizza dip is, and it’s epic.”

“Piping-hot Pizza Dip Slice of pizza served with crunchy garlicky bread toast,” the Cravings Twitter account posted. “Everything you love about your favorite delivery pizza combined in one skillet (a pan works too) Party popperAdd this to the Super Bowl snack roster now, trust us!”

With all the ingredients handy, follow these instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Set two racks in the middle and lower thirds of the oven. Spread the French baguette slices in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, and set them aside.
  1. Preheat a 10 or 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes until very hot. Layer the pizza sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pepperoni in the skillet. Sprinkle it with Italian seasoning and then bake until the sauce bubbles and the cheese melts, approximately 10 to 12 minutes.
  1. During the last 5 minutes of baking, slide the bread into the oven and toast until golden. Garnish the pizza dip with the basil and serve with the toasted baguette slices.
