Рецепт Hot Pepperoni Muffuletta Dip
You'll feel like you are in the Big Easy when you dig into this delicious cheesy dip featuring
Seriously though, this dip is addictive! It's so full of things I love and it reminds me of a city I love...New Orleans! If you've ever had the pleasure of sitting along the banks of the Mississippi enjoying a muffuletta purchased from the Central Grocery on Decatur Street in the French Quarter, this dip will take you right back there.
The traditional muffuletta is prepared with a signature olive salad that consists of olive and giardiniera elements, cured meats and provolone and mozarella cheeses served on a Sicilian sesame bread. Like the original, this dip has olive, giardiniera, cured meat (Hormel Pepperoni), and provolone cheese. I served it with some crusty bread slices. It is a taste sensation!
To make the dip, gather up all the ingredients, including Hormel® Pepperoni.
Start by chopping up about a cup of pepperoni.
Add all the ingredients except the chopped parsley to a large bowl and thoroughly combine.
Spread mixture into an oven safe ceramic dish.
Bake in a preheated oven (350 degrees F) until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes, then top with a tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley. Serve with crusty bread or crackers.

I'll be making this dip for our NYE celebration this year...and Mardi Gras....and maybe just because! ...Because it tastes so darn good!
