You can make the dip in the oven, I like to use a deep pie dish when I make it this way, or can be done in a crockpot, if I have time or if I am taking it to a pot luck or a bbq cook out. (oven at 350 for 20 mins or until the cheese melted and is a little brown, crockpot on high for about 2 hrs, till cheese melts)

Spread your softened cream cheese evenly across the bottom of your crock pot or pie dish

Sprinkle on your onion, cheese and olives, or whatever toppings you are using (ending with the cheese)

In a small bowl combine softened butter, olive oil, minced garlic, and salt & pepper.

Place sliced baguettes on a nonstick baking pan and spread butter mixture evenly over each baguette.

Sprinkle with parsley.

When pizza dip comes out of the oven, turn the oven to broil and place the baguettes into the oven.

If you are making the dip in a crockpot, I’d just wait till it was done to make the baguettes, it doesn’t take long to make.

You can also sever this with Ritz Crackers, but it would also be good with pita chips or even breadsticks.

Another option is you can add some spices to the cream cheese, ½-1 teaspoon parsley
½ teaspoon oregano
¼ teaspoon basil
¼ teaspoon garlic powder And a handful of cheese just mix all together in a bowl before putting it the crockpot or pie dish or adding some spices to the pizza sauce

There’s so many ways this can be made cheap or all out.

Notes- I use my favorite jar of spaghetti sauce and not pizza sauce, I also make my pizza monkey bread with this and spilt the spaghetti sauce for both recipe, one of the reasons I make them together.
