Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound hot pork sausage roll
- 16 ounces Velveeta Original Cheese, cubed
- 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel Original Diced Tomatoes & Green Chilies
Instructions
- Brown Sausage: In a large skillet, cook the hot pork sausage over medium heat, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks. Continue until browned and fully cooked, then drain excess grease.
- Melt Cheese and Mix: Return the skillet with the drained sausage to medium heat. Add the cubed Velveeta cheese and the entire can of Rotel (including liquid). Stir occasionally with a cooking spoon until the cheese is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
- Serve Warm: Once fully melted and combined, transfer the dip to a serving bowl and keep warm. Serve with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
Notes
- Storage: Let the dip cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
- Reheating: Reheat gently on the stovetop over low heat or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to keep it smooth.
- Spice Level: Use mild or original Rotel or switch the hot pork sausage to mild if you prefer less heat.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the sausage and mix ingredients in advance, then reheat before serving.
