Easy Queso Dip with Rotel

It’s Championship Saturday tomorrow. I will be watching the SEC Championship and snacking on this dip. This is a kicked-up version of my favorite Rotel Queso Dip. This version has sausage, cream cheese and sour cream mixed in. It is so creamy and delicious. It is one of those dips that you keep saying “This is my last bite” and you just keep eating anyway.

How to Make Creamy Rotel Dip

This dip is super easy to make. Start with browning the sausage. Drain the fat. Add Velveeta cheese, cream cheese, and Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles. Cook on low heat until the cheese has melted. Stir in some sour cream and dig in.

I used a roll of Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage. You can use regular or hot.
Can substitute ground beef for sausage.
I used a can of Mexican Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles. Can use regular, mild, or hot Rotel in this dip.
Can make the dip on the stovetop, in the microwave, or in the crockpot.
You can double the recipe for a large crowd.
I like to make the dip on the stove and keep it warm in the slow cooker.
Serve the dip with celery sticks, bell pepper slices, or gluten-free chips for a gluten-free dish.
