MUFFULETTA DIP
For the uninitiated, a muffuletta is traditionally a sandwich on a round Sicilian sesame bread, originated by Italian immigrants in New Orleans. A traditional style muffuletta sandwich consists of a muffuletta loaf split horizontally and covered with layers of marinated olive salad, mortadella, salami, mozzarella, ham, and provolone. The sandwich is sometimes heated to soften the provolone. Quarter, half, and full-sized muffulettas are sold. This recipe is a fun variation of the muffuletta. Recipe & photo: bhg.com

Steps:
- Rinse and drain pickled vegetables. Remove stems from peppers; chop vegetables (should be about 1 cup).
- In a 1-1/2- or 2-quart slow cooker, combine pickled vegetables, cream cheese, provolone cheese, ham, olives, garlic, Italian seasoning, and, if desired, crushed red pepper.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 2 to 3 hours. Stir until cream cheese is smooth. Stir in enough milk (2 to 3 Tbsp.) to reach dipping consistency.
- Serve immediately or keep warm, covered, on warm setting or low-heat setting for up to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, and adding milk as necessary. Serve with salami on toasted bread.
