Vegan Pizza Dip
This cheesy vegan pizza dip is packed with mushrooms, peppers, olives, and vegan pepperoni. Just dip in with a crostini and enjoy!
Ingredients
- 3 cups shredded vegan mozzarella cheese
- 3 cups shredded vegan cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 cups vegan mayo
- 1 package vegan pepperoni (half chopped, half whole)
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
- 8 oz mushrooms (diced finely)
- 1 small onion (diced finely)
- 1 green bell pepper (diced finely)
- 1 6-oz can sliced black olives (drained and rinsed)
- toasted crostini or crackers (for serving)
- your favorite fresh vegetables (for serving - optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, combine all the ingredients except the whole pepperoni.
- Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and top with the reserved whole pepperoni.
- Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until the cheese is melted and the mixture is bubbly.
- Let cool for 5–10 minutes and serve alongside toasted baguette slices and fresh vegetables.
Notes
Olives: You can substitute green olives for black olives, or use a mixture of both. Mushrooms: To take an extra shortcut, you can even use 8 oz. of canned mushrooms (this is how my grandmother-in-law makes it), although I find the flavor and texture to be sub-par compared to fresh ones.
