• 2 in a small bowl, mix together the cream cheese, oregano, parsley, basil, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes.
• 3 spread mixture in the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate, or a shallow microwave-safe dish. sprinkle 1/2 cup of the mozzarella cheese and 1/2 cup of the parmesan cheese on top of the cream cheese mixture. spread the pizza sauce over all.
• 4 microwave the pepperoni for about 30 seconds just to get some of the fat out of them so you don't end up with a greasy mess on top of your pizza dip.
• 5 sprinkle with remaining cheese, then top with green pepper, pepperoni and olive slices. cover, and microwave for 5 minutes or bake in a 350°f oven for 15-20 minutes. serve hot with baguette slices, tortilla chips, or fritos scoops.
