This dip isn’t one of the prettiest dips to photograph because of how white and grey it is but it is definitely a dip that you will make again and again. I’ve seen it being called the “Ugly Dip” but I’ll leave it up to you to decide that.
I don’t know if you’d even call this a recipe. All you do is brown some sausage, add the can of Rotel tomatoes, and cream cheese, and call it a day. If your sausage isn’t hot enough, feel free to add in ⅛ teaspoon of cayenne pepper or hot sauce. This dip is served best warm
The chips were from Sam’s Club. They have these multi-grain flax tortilla chips that are perfecting for any kind of dipping.
Ingredients for Spicy Sausage Dip
Sausage - This dip only works if your sausage is flavorful enough. The last time I made this the sausage didn’t have any taste to it at all so definitely go for a spicier sausage or pick some up at your local butcher shop.
Cream Cheese - I’ve seen people use Velveeta instead of Cream Cheese
Rotel - no substitute
Serve with your favorite crackers or chips
