Low-carb, sugar-free, THM:S, Gluten/egg/nut free if using non-contaminated ingredients | The cream cheese and sour cream will likely combine best at room temperature, but if you forget to set them out beforehand, that's OK. The dip will taste the same; it just might not be as pretty.

Serves: 1 9x13" pan
Ingredients
2 8 oz. packages cream cheese (either ⅓ less fat or full fat), preferably at room temperature (see note above)
1 cup sour cream, preferably at room temperature
½ tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. Italian seasoning
2 cups no-sugar pizza sauce
Quarter-sized bunch chopped fresh cilantro
4-8 oz. fresh mushrooms, chopped
1 large onion, chopped
Chopped green peppers, sliced black olives, or other non-starchy vegetables of choice, optional
3 cups mozzarella cheese
Pepperoni (turkey or regular) for topping (I quarter mine to make them stretch further)
Instructions
With an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning together until smooth and creamy. Spread in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch pan.
Top with the NSA pizza sauce.
Sprinkle with the chopped fresh cilantro, mushrooms, and onions (and other vegetables, if desired).
Spread the cheese over the top and top with pepperoni as desired.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes. Serve immediately (or keep warm in an insulated carry bag and reheat a little in the oven an hour or two later for a party, like I did. It's probably not as good, but it works.). To keep this dip low-carb, serve with veggies or low-carb pita chips.
