Notes
Velveeta cheese: For an ultra-creamy and cheesy dip, add 4 to 8 ounces of cubed Velveeta.
Less chunky: To stretch this recipe and make it less chunky, add a second block of cream cheese.
Adjust the heat: For more heat, use the hot Rotel variety or add some crushed red pepper. For less heat, use regular breakfast sausage instead of hot. You can also use a mild Rotel or mild salsa.
Storage: Store leftover cream cheese sausage dip in the refrigerator. First, let it cool, then transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3-4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave, stirring occasionally.
