How to make Rotel Sausage Dip

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: colby jack cheese

Colby jack is often cheaper and melts well.

ground sausage

🥗Healthier: ground turkey

💰Cheaper: ground beef

Ground turkey is leaner, while ground beef is often less expensive.

Turn the crock pot on high to warm it up.

Cut open the Jimmy Dean sausage package with scissors.

Squeeze the sausage into a pan and cook over medium heat (about 5) until well done.

Break down the sausage with a fork to ensure even cooking.

While the sausage is cooking, open the can of Rotel tomatoes and pour it into the crock pot.

Open the cream cheese and plop it into the crock pot with the Rotel tomatoes.

Place the lid on the crock pot and continue to break down the sausage in the pan.

Once the sausage is browned, pour it directly into the crock pot without draining any excess grease.

Stir the mixture in the crock pot to combine the ingredients.

Cover the crock pot and let it cook for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

After 15 to 20 minutes, check the mixture; the cream cheese should be melted and everything should be well combined.

If desired, let it cook a little longer to achieve a bubbly texture.

Once done, serve the dip in a bowl with Dorito chips.
