Baked Supreme Pizza Dip

Sometimes I just crave pizza.  You know – the gooey, melt-y cheese, the spicy meats, the abundance of veggies.  That doesn’t mean that I always want to make a pizza, though, or that I’m interested in the crust, because as good as it can be, somehow I never get hungry for that specific part.
