Guys don't wanna snack on raw veggies and hummus. They want fried chips dipped in hot meat and cheese! Serve the guys this dip with corn tortilla chips, potato chips or crackers, but for heaven's sake, NOT raw veggies!

5 cups (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 lb sweet bulk sausage
2 green onions, chopped (can chop some of the dark green parts for garnish, but guys don't care about garnish.)
1 (15 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into cubes (you could use low fat, but with all that sausage, why bother?)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/8-1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

1
In a saucepan, brown and crumble sausage with the green onion until sausage is no longer pink. Drain.
2
Return sausage mixture to saucepan. Add remaining ingredients. Cook and stir over med-low heat until heated through and cheeses melted.
3
Serve hot with their favorite dippers. Or just give them each a spoon. ;).

This was very good. It was more like a 4-1/2 than 5 for me because the second the heat was off it started to thicken up a lot. It had very good flavor. I doubled it and used 1 can of tomatoes and 1 of rotel. I also used fresh garlic which was awesome. Fun new recipe, thanks.

AS un-manly as veggies might be, I put this into large mushroom caps that have been buttered and broiled for a couple of minutes. Add the extra cheese on top, then broil slightly more. Manly AND elegant!

I still made this strong and manly, but was able to watch his arteries too! LOL I used "gimme lean" vegetarian sausage and fat free cream cheese (because the 1/3 less fat I had planned on using had somehow gone bad!). Still a fabulous dip. We ate it with homemade pita chips and I think the leftovers will be reheated tomorrow and eaten with homemade baked corn chips! Dh did say, when he read the intro, "Hey! I love hummus!" But he liked this one too!

The description of this recipe made me laugh so much I had to try it and I was not sorry I did. This was so good it was scary, I found myself "testing" it with a spoon for about 15 minutes, at least it was not a carrot! I served this with tortilla chips, I promise.
