Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese, sour cream, and Italian seasoning. Mix until smooth and well combined.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish or a similar oven-safe baking dish.
Pour the marinara or pizza sauce over the cream cheese layer and spread it evenly to cover.
Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese and the Parmesan cheese over the sauce layer.
Top with pepperoni slices, chopped green bell peppers, and sliced black olives, arranging them evenly across the surface.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of mozzarella cheese over the top.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden around the edges.
Remove the pizza dip from the oven and let it cool slightly for 5 minutes.
Garnish with fresh chopped basil, if desired. Serve warm with crusty bread, pita chips, or crackers for dipping.
