Pin This RecipeI must confess. I had my doubts about this recipe. With only 3 ingredients I wasn’t sure this was going to have much flavor. Well, I was completely wrong! This stuff is awesome!!!
I am not a big fan of plain cream cheese. I love it in dips, casseroles, etc. But just cream cheese on a bagel – nope. I was worried that this 3-Ingredient Cream Cheese Sausage Dip would have too much of a cream cheese flavor, but it didn’t. The sausage and tomatoes really shine in this dip. We served this with some scoops tortilla chips and it was perfect! This is a great dip for when you need something quick and easy for a party. It is always a hit!

Just make it. You can’t go wrong. Everybody loves it! It’s definitely a winner.
I’ve always found instead of Dipping with Tortilla chips, it’s better with nacho cheese Doritos.
YUM! Doritos are never a bad idea!
Cooler Ranch Doritos*
Definitely a deeeelicious hit! I made it as as the recipe to the T! Will make it again and again.
This is our Thanksgiving dip. I make it with sage sausage, and it’s so good!
Has anyone ever made with Turkey breakfast sausage?
Turkey sausage will work just fine.
My family loves it for Breakfast on grits!!!!❤️❤️❤️
That’s genius I’m eating that next 😋 breakfast
Can you remake this and reheat the next day for game day?
Sure
I just made this and it is delicious. I had bought several links of a sausage called “Salt & Pepper” so I thought it would be spicy, but it wasn’t. I had a couple of links left that I really didn’t think I was going to cook them, but then saw the recipe for a sausage dip. I bought a can of Rotel and had a block of generic cream cheese. I did add a little cayenne and some ground sage.
Love this! I did one alteration—I used 1/2 a can of Rotel and added Pace Hot Salsa to equal the whole can, so like 5 oz of each. It didn’t even make it to the crockpot!
Thank you for the recipe. I made it last night for our Christmas party and it was a big hit. I will definitely be making this again.
I’ve been making this for years, and I definitely recommend hot sausage. I just put it in a small crockpot to keep it warm. There’s never any left! So easy and so good!!
Same here and there is never any left and the bowl is scraped clean, every single time.
We’ve made this recipe for years but use two chubs of sausage and 4 packages of cream cheese. Big family to feed sometimes and this is their favorite dip.
Raise the level of this dip by using the Alabama Fire Cracker recipe for saltines instead of using tortilla chips.
I love this dip but was wondering if I could make it ahead of time and freeze it? It’s about a 5 hour drive so having it frozen I wouldn’t worry so much about it?
I’ve never frozen this dip, so I can not say. You can definitely cook the sausage in advance and then just quickly cook it on the stove.
I make this all the time.I use Italian sausage and don’t drain the grease from sausage. It adds flavor. This is a meal for me. Love it. These recipes are fabulous I will be making several of them. Thank you.
Had it for 1st time today!!
Love it!!
I keep coming back to make this again and again! It’s beautiful for breakfast in a bowl with two fresh sunny side up eggs! Mixed all together with the runny yolks, it’s an absolute dream! I also like the dip filling up celery sticks.
I’ve been eating this for 40+ years. If you make “enough “ to be able to have leftovers, try putting it in a tortilla, heat it in the microwave… FABULOUS !!!
This is delicious. Easy to prepare.
Hi there. I found this recipe on a recommendation from a friend. It is really good. They did make a slight alteration to the recipe. They drained out the Rotel juice so the cheese would maintain a whiter color
We can’t get Rotel where I am in Canada. Can you suggest a substitute? I have tried Rotel when we wintered in the States one year and totally loved it. Have not been able to find a replacement for it here.
a can of diced tomatoes and a can of diced green chiles
What size slow cooker would do for this to keep it warm?
3-qt or smaller – probably 1.5-qt if you can find one.
i use salsa instead of rotel and everyone loves it
