Notes
Transfer leftovers into an airtight container and store in the fridge for 3-4 days. I do not recommend freezing leftovers since there's so much cheese in the dish. To reheat leftovers, place them in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
To reheat leftover pizza dip, you can use either an oven or a microwave. In the oven, preheat to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the dip in an oven-safe dish, cover with foil, and heat for 20-25 minutes, checking for doneness at 20 minutes.
For the microwave, transfer the dip to a microwave-safe dish, cover, and heat on medium power in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, for a total of 1-2 minutes until evenly heated.
