Description
A creamy and flavorful dip perfect for parties or game day, made with sausage, cream cheese, and tomatoes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs. breakfast sausage (1 lb. regular and 1 lb. hot. I like Jimmy Dean’s.)
- 32 oz. cream cheese (4 8-oz. bricks)
- 20 oz. Rotel tomatoes (2 cans, do not drain)
- Juice of 1–2 limes (optional)
Instructions
- Spray a slow cooker with nonstick spray and set the temperature to low.
- Add the tomatoes, their juices, cream cheese, and lime juice (if using) to the slow cooker. Mix well and place the lid on top.
- In a large skillet, set over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned. Drain the sausage and add it to the cheese/tomato mixture; mix well and replace the lid.
- Cook on high until the cheese has melted, stirring every 15 minutes; about 1 hour. Once the cream cheese has melted, set the slow cooker to warm and stir about every 30 minutes.
- Serve with chips, your favorite crackers, and/or your favorite sliced vegetables. Enjoy!
Notes
- This dip is great for gatherings and pairs well with various snacks.
