Tips and Variations
Here are a few ideas for substitutions and variations for this dip.
- Sausage – I used ground pork breakfast sausage. You can use Italian sausage.
- Cheese – You can alter the cheese if you don’t have cheddar or prefer another type.
- This dip has Dijon mustard in it. You can taste the mustard it. Therefore, I recommend reducing the amount or omitting it altogether if you’re not a mustard fan.
- As well, I use just a little mayonnaise in my recipe. It lightens it just a tad. Otherwise, it’s really thick with just
cream cheese .
How do you serve cheesy sausage dip?
After you remove this dip from the oven, let it sit for at least 5 minutes to cool. Just so it doesn’t burn anyone. I do, however, prefer it served warm.
I like to serve Cheesy Sausage Dip with Scoops. The chips in the photo are off-brand corn chips that taste just like Scoops. As well, tortilla chips, sturdy crackers, chips, crostini, pretzel sticks, or breadsticks will be good.
Finally, you could also use vegetables to dip. Try broccoli, cauliflower, celery, or zucchini.
How long will sausage dip keep?
If storage properly in an airtight container, it will keep 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator.
However, remember, any dip that has set out for an extended period of time (over 1 hour) should be discarded.
