Ingredients
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 the Sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the pork sausage, breaking it up into small pieces with a spatula as it cooks. Drain the excess grease thoroughly to avoid a greasy dip.
- Combine Ingredients: Return the skillet to the heat and add the cubed Velveeta cheese along with the entire can of Rotel, including the liquid.
- Melt and Stir: Stir occasionally using a cooking spoon until the cheese is completely melted and the mixture is smooth and combined, about 10 minutes.
Notes
- Storage: Let leftover dip cool completely, then transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate. Consume within 3 to 4 days for best quality.
- Reheating: Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, stirring occasionally to ensure even heating and prevent scorching.
- Variations: Use mild or spicy sausage depending on your heat preference, and substitute Velveeta with a similar processed cheese for a different flavor.
- Serving Suggestion: Serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh vegetables for dipping.
