Hey, y'all. Another day, another dip -- dips are easy + fun to make and certainly one of the most common dishes that I post here on the blog. This Italian Hoagie Dip is a little untraditional - but, believe me when I say this: it is absolutely divine. I'd be embarrassed to tell you how quickly we finished the bowl after I made it. I know y'all are going to love it, too!
Italian Hoagie Dip
Frequently Asked Questions
I recommend using pepperoni, salami, and ham; if you do not like one of these, substitute the cold cut meat of your choice.
I recommend eating this dip within a day, though it is best served almost immediately. A main ingredient is lettuce and the lettuce will get soggy if kept in the refrigerator too long.
I think it serves best with sliced baguette/Italian bread or a salty chip, such as a Tostitos Scoop.
