Ingredients
- 16 oz Cream cheese
- 10 oz Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies (undrained)
- 1 lb Ground sausage (mild, medium, or spicy as preferred)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
Directions
Step 1
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage, breaking it apart with a spatula as it browns. Cook until no pink remains, about 8–10 minutes. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
Step 2
2. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to low and add the cream cheese. Stir frequently until the cream cheese is completely melted and smooth, about 3–5 minutes.
Step 3
3. Stir in the Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, including the liquid from the can. Mix well until fully combined with the cream cheese.
Step 4
4. Add the cooked sausage back into the skillet, stirring until evenly distributed.
Step 5
5. Sprinkle in the shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder. Stir until the cheese is melted and the dip is thick and creamy.
Step 6
6. Taste the dip and adjust seasonings if needed. You can add a pinch of salt or extra garlic powder for more flavor.
Step 7
7. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl or a slow cooker set to 'warm' to keep it hot.
Step 8
8. Serve immediately with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetable sticks. Enjoy!
