Ingredients
Speaking of ingredients, here is what you need:
- Sausage – One pound bulk ground pork sausage. I like using Jimmy Dean hot sausage but you can choose your favorite brand.
- Rotel – One can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies. Do not drain!
- Cream cheese – One 8 ounce brick of cream cheese, cubed (to help it melt quicker).
How to Make Sausage Cream Cheese Dip
- Brown and crumble the sausage. Drain off fat if necessary.
- Stir in the Rotel and cream cheese.
- Serve warm with tortilla chips for dipping.
Recipe tips
Extra creamy – Prefer a less chunky dip? Use 2 packages of cream cheese and leave all the other ingredients the same.
Turn down the heat – Opt for mild sausage and/or Rotel to bring down the level of spice.
Keep warm all night – Making the dip for game day or for a party where guests will be snacking on it throughout the evening? Serve in a crockpot to keep the dip the perfect temperate all evening.
Storage – If you are lucky enough to have any sausage rotel dip leftover you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop and enjoy.
