→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
02 -
1 cup sour cream
03 -
8 ounces softened cream cheese
04 -
1 packet of ranch seasoning (1 ounce)
05 -
1 pound ground sausage (your choice of mild or spicy)
06 -
1/2 cup diced tomatoes (optional)
07 -
1/4 cup green onions, chopped for topping
08 -
1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
# Instructions:
01 -
In a large skillet on medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it into small pieces as it browns. Once it's fully done, drain out the extra grease and set aside.
02 -
Grab a large mixing bowl and stir together the softened cream cheese, sour cream, and ranch seasoning. Mix until it's nice and smooth.
03 -
Toss in the cooked sausage, mozzarella and cheddar cheeses, and diced tomatoes (if you want). Stir everything until it's well blended.
04 -
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish, spread your sausage mixture evenly inside, and add some extra cheese on top if you like.
05 -
Place your dish in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. You'll know it's ready when the cheese is fully melted and everything is bubbling.
06 -
Once baked, let it sit for 5 minutes to cool a little. Add chopped green onions on top and serve warm with chips, crackers, or veggies.
# Notes:
