Ingredients You’ll Need

Here’s a classic base recipe:

• 1 pound ground sausage (mild or spicy)
• 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
• 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chilies (drained slightly)
• 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)

Optional add-ins:

• Jalapeños (for heat)
• Black beans or corn (for texture)

Step-by-Step Method

Step 1: Cook the Sausage

Start by placing a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground sausage and cook it until it’s fully browned.

• Break it apart into small crumbles as it cooks
• Make sure there’s no pink left
• Drain excess grease to avoid an oily dip

This step builds the base flavor, so don’t rush it.

Step 2: Prepare the Slow Cooker

Transfer the cooked sausage into your slow cooker.

Then add:

• Cream cheese (cut into cubes for easier melting)
• Diced tomatoes with green chilies
• Shredded cheese
• Any optional seasonings
