1 can (10 ounces or 280 g) diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
1 cup (240 ml) milk
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 cup (100 g) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Cook the Sausage:
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain any excess fat.
Combine Ingredients:
Add the softened cream cheese and cubed processed cheese to the skillet with the cooked sausage. Stir until the cheeses begin to melt.
Add Liquids and Seasonings:
Pour in the undrained diced tomatoes with green chilies, milk, garlic powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.
Simmer:
Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cheeses are fully melted and the dip is smooth.
Finish and Serve:
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted and incorporated. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or sliced baguette.
Notes
Make-Ahead: This dip can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop or in the microwave before serving.
Slow Cooker Option: To keep the dip warm during a party, transfer the prepared dip to a slow cooker set on low. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
