Skinny Pizza Dip

As promised, I have 'made over' pizza dip.    I LOVE pizza dip.    I took an original recipe that I got from my sister, and then totally modified it using fat free and light ingredients.   I also added a few extra ingredients for flavor.  The amount of spices and garlic will depend on your taste.    Also, I am sure that you could add other pizza toppings such as green peppers or onions.   I just stuck to pepperoni.

Step 1:

1 package of fat free cream cheese
2 Laughing Cow Light cheese wedges - french onion flavor
2 TBS. minced garlic
1/4 cup Light Sour Cream
5.3 ounces of plain Greek yogurt, fat free
1 string cheese light, shredded in food processor
1 TB Italian Seasoning

Mix all of the above ingredients together.     Make sure it's mixed well, so that all the flavors blend together.   When it is thoroughly mixed, taste it.    You may want to add more garlic or Italian seasoning at this point, depending on your taste.

Put this in a small glass casserole dish as the first layer.    Add the next layers:

1 cup of pizza sauce
17 slices of turkey pepperoni, cut into quarters
2 String cheese light, shredded in food processor.

Cook at 350 until bubbly.   Let it sit for a few minutes before serving.  Makes 6 large servings.

I'm sure you are wondering why I used string cheese.    Well, in my opinion it is easier to control the portion, so I know exactly how much I am adding.   The dip can be served on whatever you like.....crackers, bread, etc.   To keep it a 'skinny' dip, just watch what sort of chips or bread you use.   A lightly toasted light pita (60 calories) worked perfectly for us!   My hubby tasted the dip, and his eyes opened in delight!    I love it when he loves my skinny recipes!!
