Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground breakfast sausage
- 16 ounces Velveeta cheese
- 10 ounces Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 1 tablespoon Optional: Jalapeños (chopped for extra heat)
- 2 tablespoons Optional: Fresh cilantro (chopped, for garnish)
- 1 bag Tortilla chips
Instructions
Place a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground breakfast sausage. Cook it until fully browned, breaking it into crumbles with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess grease and set the sausage aside.
Cut the Velveeta cheese into 1-inch cubes to help it melt faster.
In a slow cooker or large saucepan over low heat, combine the cubed Velveeta cheese, Rotel diced tomatoes (undrained), and cooked sausage.
Stir the mixture occasionally until the cheese has completely melted and forms a smooth, creamy dip, about 10-15 minutes.
If desired, stir in the optional chopped jalapeños for extra heat.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl or keep it warm in a slow cooker on the ‘Keep Warm’ setting.
Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro, if desired, and serve with tortilla chips for dipping.
