Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground sausage see notes
  • 2 tablespoons taco seasoning
  • 1 (10-ounce) can Rotel tomatoes
  • 1 (15-ounce) can salsa-style tomatoes (see notes)
  • 16 ounces cubed Velveeta cheese

Instructions

  • Brown the ground sausage over medium heat.
  • Add it to a crock pot with the taco seasoning, Rotel Tomatoes, salsa-style tomatoes, and Velveeta cheese. Cover and turn to high heat. 
  • Cook for 2 hours or until the cheese is melted and the dip is hot.

Notes

  • Salsa-style canned tomatoes: Canned salsa-style tomatoes are in the same aisle as the other canned tomatoes. If they are difficult to find, add another can of Rotel Tomatoes, petite diced tomatoes, or an equivalent amount of your favorite tomato-based jarred salsa and a small can of green chilis.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Reheat in the crockpot, in the microwave at reduced power, or on the stovetop over low heat.
  • Or freeze for up to 3 months when stored in a heavy-duty freezer container. Thaw in the fridge overnight, then reheat in the crockpot, microwave at reduced power, or on the stovetop over low heat.
