Ingredients

Scale

Cheeses

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup provolone cheese, shredded or chopped

Other Ingredients

  • 1 cup marinara sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning (basil, oregano, thyme blend)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil (for greasing the baking dish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cheese Mixture: In a large bowl, combine ricotta, shredded mozzarella, grated parmesan, and provolone cheese. Stir well to create a uniform, cheesy base.
  2. Add the Sauce and Seasoning: Fold in the marinara sauce, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Mix everything until fully incorporated, creating a creamy, savory blend.
  3. Transfer to Baking Dish: Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil. Spread the cheese and sauce mixture evenly, smoothing the top for a clean finish.
  4. Bake Until Bubbling and Golden: Place in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes or until the dip is bubbly and the top is turning a beautiful golden brown.
  5. Cool Slightly and Serve: Allow the dip to cool for a few minutes before serving, so it thickens slightly and is easier to scoop.

Notes

  • Use fresh, high-quality cheeses to enhance flavor and meltability.
  • Carefully balance the amount of marinara to avoid making the dip too watery.
  • Ensure all cheeses and sauce are well combined for even melting and flavor distribution.
  • Keep an eye on the dip while baking to prevent over-browning or drying out.
  • Serve warm immediately after baking for the best gooey texture.
