Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground breakfast sausage
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Ranch dressing
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 can Canned diced tomatoes and green chilies (e.g., Rotel, drained)
- 2 Green onions, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 1 bag Tortilla chips or crackers (for serving)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, crumble and cook the ground breakfast sausage until browned and cooked through. Drain any excess grease from the pan and set the sausage aside.
In the same skillet, add the cream cheese and ranch dressing. Stir continuously over low heat until the cream cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth.
Add the cooked sausage, shredded cheddar cheese, and drained diced tomatoes with green chilies to the skillet. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
Allow the dip to cook for 3–5 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is hot and bubbly.
Transfer the sausage dip to a serving dish, if desired. Garnish with chopped green onions for a fresh pop of flavor and color, if using.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips or crackers for dipping. Enjoy!
