High Protein Pizza Dip
By Sammi Brondo — October 20, 2026
This high protein pizza dip layers creamy Greek yogurt, melty mozzarella, and pepperoni in one skillet. Ready in 35 minutes and perfect for sharing.
I barely have words for this High Protein Pizza Dip. I mean, look at it.
There’s always something so fun about a dip.
Add bread, add veggies, or eat it plain. Sometimes switching things up and turning traditional foods – like pizza – into a dip is way to make food fun.
This dip is fun. It’s also beyond delicious!!!
You’ve got perfectly melty cheese and salty pepperoni. It also has a base layer made with Greek yogurt that makes the dip extra creamy and really ups the protein in it.
Between the Greek yogurt, cheese, and pepperoni, this dip has a lot of protein.
I love it as an appetizer – especially if you’re serving guests. Set it out with some toasted sourdough bread or pita chips. Your guests will love it!
And look, you can also totally make this one for just yourself too. If you want to make less, simply half the recipe and use a smaller skillet.
Or make the full recipe! I’m sure you know by now that serving sizes are arbitrary and if you feel like eating the whole thing, go right ahead.
After all, you know your body and its hunger and levels best.
But what you don’t yet know is how delicious this High Protein Pizza Dip is! So please, run to make it.

If You Love This High Protein Pizza Dip, Try These
Ingredients You’ll Need
- Greek yogurt: I recommend using plain whole milk Greek yogurt.
- Mozzarella cheese: You can use pre-shredded cheese or shred your own.
- Spices: You’ll need onion powder, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning.
- Pizza sauce: Use your favorite store-bought pizza sauce.
- Parmesan cheese: I always recommend grating your own parm for the best flavor. This inexpensive hand grater is my go to!
- Pepperoni: You can use regular or turkey pepperoni.
- Olive oil: You need just a little olive oil to drizzle on top of the dip before baking.
High Protein Pizza Dip Tips & Variations
- Customize the toppings: Add your favorite pizza toppings, such as cooked pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, bell peppers, or olives. Chop larger toppings into small pieces so they’re easy to scoop.
- Serve it hot: Bake the dip until it’s warmed through and the cheese is melted and bubbly. Let it cool for a few minutes before serving so the dip thickens slightly and is easier to scoop.
- Storage: This dip is best served right after making, but you can store it in the fridge (I recommend just placing a lid or foil right on your skillet) and broiling it again for a few minutes until warm and crisp on top.
