Slow Cooker Queso Dip Recipe

So, this is my husband’s all time FAVORITE dip ever. He will request it at every holiday, every party, and any gathering. I honestly don’t blame him because this slow cooker queso dip is amazing. It’s also incredibly easy to make, so I’m good with it.

This queso dip has 3 simple ingredients. Yes only 3 ingredients! Velveeta cheese, pork sausage, and Rotel tomatoes. It seems like it should be more, I know. But when you put these ingredients together in the slow cooker, magic happens.

What Ingredients Are in Slow Cooker Queso Dip?

Pork Sausage – I like to use regular pork sausage so that it’s not too spicy for my kids. However, my husband loves when I use Italian pork sausage for a little extra kick. Either works! Our favorite brand to use is the Jimmy Dean pork sausage, but you can use whatever brand you would like.
Velveeta Cheese – Don’t come at me, I know this cheese looks gross, but it makes the best queso dip.
Rotel Tomatoes – Rotel tomatoes have both tomatoes and green chilis, so it has great flavor.

Tools You’ll Need

Add the cooked sausage to the slow cooker.
Cut the Velveeta cheese into small cubes and add it to the slow cooker as well.
Pour the Rotel tomatoes over the sausage and cheese.
Cover and cook on low for 1–2 hours, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
Once the cheese is completely melted and the dip is smooth, it’s ready to serve.
Serve warm with crackers or tortilla chips. Enjoy!
