Hearty appetizers are perfect to share with a crowd for any get together, but once this recipe is made for your family and friends be prepared to be the official cheese dip maker!

Queso Sausage Dip Without Any Extra Fillers in the Meat!

There are no spices added in the ingredient list because all the flavor comes from the food! 

Be sure to use good quality sausage that isn’t made with any fillers like rice, flour, potato starch or breadcrumbs. 

Also, look at the ingredients on the tomatoes, and pick a brand that cans without any added sugar!

I used Premio brand of sausage, which I also used for this low carb biscuits and sausage gravy recipe.  Premio has quickly become my favorite sausage!  It’s so tasty!

Another way to add simple tasty flavor to this sausage cheese dip is to add petite tomatoes with chilies.  One can is all it took to liven up this cheesy appetizer. 

For this recipe I used the store brand, but you can find all different types of tomato and diced chili combinations like Rotel, so pick your favorite brand (or what’s on sale).

Customize To Your Spicy Preference

You can always add some extra heat if you want this dip to be extra spicy by including a chopped jalapeno or serve them sliced on the side.
