How to make Velveeta sausage dip

Step one: Start by cooking and browning sausage in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step three: Once the cheese has melted, pour dip into a serving dish or a slow cooker if you need to keep warm for a party.

Tips for the best sausage dip

Sausage – Try and remove any excess grease from the sausage. This will help prevent the dip from being runny. You can also use half the amount of sausage if you prefer a more cheesy dip.

Cheese – Cut the Velveeta into cubes. This will help it melt faster and prevents burning.

Cooking method – This dip can also be prepared in the microwave or the slow cooker.

Additions: Try topping with diced green onion for a little color. You could also add in diced bell peppers to the mixture.

Want it even spicier? Stir in a few splashes of hot sauce.
