Pizza Dip with Fritos

Many moons ago, at my older brothers graduation party {or confirmation party...I can't remember ~  many moons ago!}, a family friend brought an amazing pizza dip appetizer, served with Fritos for dipping.  It.  Was.  Amazing. ~  the type of appetizer you just can't tear yourself away from.  I requested the recipe but never actually got it {some people are so stingy with their hit recipes!}, but with the Super Bowl coming next weekend, I figured now was as good a time as any to search for something similar.  The trick is, it has to be served with Fritos SCOOPS chips ~ the salty yumminess those crackers give {versus regular tortilla chips or a sliced baguette} is what really makes this dip so gosh-darn delish.

I just spent some time scouring the web for pizza dip recipes {and there are a lot out there}, and I think I've found a winner ~ the White Pizza Dip featured on designer bags and dirty diapers blog.  She served her dip with both bread and Fritos and said the Fritos were the runaway winner.
