Make this crowd-pleasing, cheesy Rotel dip with sausage. It is simple to prepare and stays warm perfectly in a slow cooker for your next party or game day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground sausage
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Rotel diced tomatoes and green chilies, undrained
  • 1 (16 ounce) package Velveeta cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, cut into cubes
  • 1/4 cup milk (optional, for thinning)

Instructions

  1. Cook the ground sausage in a large skillet over medium heat until it is fully browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Transfer the cooked sausage to a slow cooker.
  3. Add the undrained Rotel tomatoes and green chilies, Velveeta cubes, and cream cheese cubes to the slow cooker.
  4. Stir the ingredients together until they are mostly combined.
  5. Cook on low for 1 to 2 hours, stirring every 20 minutes, until all the cheese is completely melted and the dip is smooth.
  6. If the dip seems too thick, stir in the milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  7. Serve warm with tortilla chips or crackers.

Notes

  • For a stovetop version, combine all ingredients in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until smooth.
  • If you skip the sausage, this becomes a simple 3 ingredient dip: Rotel, Velveeta, and cream cheese.
  • You can substitute ground beef for the sausage if you prefer a different flavor profile.
