Hot Ranch Sausage Dip

INGREDIENTS:

1 pound of ground sausage (you can use mild or spicy, depending on your preference)

1 packet of dry ranch dressing mix

1 block (8 ounces) of cream cheese, softened

1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese

DIRECTIONS:

In a skillet, cook the ground sausage over medium heat until it’s fully browned and cooked through. Make sure to break it into small crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, dry ranch dressing mix, softened cream cheese, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix everything together until it’s well combined.

Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe dish, like a baking dish or a cast-iron skillet.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the dip for about 20-25 minutes, or until it’s hot and bubbly, and the cheese is melted and slightly golden on top.

You can also garnish it with some chopped green onions or fresh herbs for extra flavor.

Serve it with your favorite dipping options like tortilla chips, crackers, or vegetable sticks.
