There are so many low carb pizza crust alternatives out there, but why not remove the crust altogether, and turn it into a dip? The key to keeping this dip low carb is the pasta sauce – which often contains high amounts of sugar. Why not try these low carb/sugar free options from Bella Vita or Hunt’s? Or you could make your own. 😉

This is the basic idea:

1. Spread cream cheese over the base of an oven-proof dish
2. Cover with tomato pasta sauce
3. Sprinkle with grated cheese
4. Broil until melted and bubbly

Easy, right??! You can also mix in extra ingredients to your pasta sauce like Italian seasoning, fresh herbs or cayenne. I have also tried making this in the microwave but found it does have a tendency to spit and make a huge mess of the microwave! You can also used canned tomato sauce with added seasoning.

To serve the pizza dip, here are some ideas:

• Celery sticks
• Flaxseed crackers
• Cucumber sticks
• Pepperoni chips
• Baby romaine lettuce leaves
• Homemade tortilla chips
• Vegetable chips
• You could even wrap it in a low carb tortilla!

Thank you to Robin Basney for the inspiration for this recipe!
