Today, I am sharing a quick and easy sausage dip that people absolutely love – Hot and Spicy Sausage Dip! Aka, Ugly Dip and Man Dip. This recipe, like most of the recipes I share, takes just a few ingredients, ONLY 3 – cream cheese, Rotel, and sausage, that’s it! Simple to make too (ready in minutes), so darn good. This is one of my favorite go-to appetizers – it makes the BEST sausage dip!
EASY SAUSAGE DIP (Hot & Spicy) – Only 3 Ingredients
This cream cheese, Rotel, and sausage dip is a crowd favorite appetizer that’s perfect for parties, game day, holidays and more! You may want to double the recipe, this dip is addictive and gets devoured – it’s always the first to go at parties, I always come home with an empty bowl.
Read rave reviews from people who tried this recipe on Pinterest (with photos)!
If you’re looking for an appetizer everyone will enjoy, I highly recommend giving this recipe a try at your next gathering! I always serve this in a small crock pot at parties – keeps it warm for serving.

This has been my family and friend’s favorite dip for years! It’s keto, if you use low carb baked tortillas or zuchinni or celery. It’s still yummy!!!
Also, I use hot turkey sausage. It’s just as good as pork sausage and less fat.

This is really good stuffed into bell peppers and baked in the oven!

So for every 8oz cream cheese

Jimmy Dean has MSG in most of his products, so you just regular sausage.

I made this tonight using dairy free cream cheese from Trader Joe’s and it turned out wonderfully.

I made this tonight with two blocks of cream cheese!
I added some pepper, red pepper flakes, garlic salt, and red chili for added flavor. As I let it sit longer I realize I didn’t need so many spices but it initially tasted a bit too bland. Still delicious with all of the spices— just a word to any others who may be making this dip but reading reviews first 🙂

I make this quite a lot and it's a big hit. For variety I sprinkle shredded Mexican cheese on top and melt it.
