A flavorful and creamy dip perfect for gatherings, featuring a blend of spicy sausage, melted cheese, and zesty tomatoes.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage and ground beef over medium heat until browned.
Break the meat into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the onion from burning.
Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
Use a spoon to carefully remove the fat or pour it out into a heat-safe container.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, processed cheese, and salsa.
Cut the cheese into smaller pieces to help it melt faster.
Simmer the mixture over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cheese is fully melted and the dip is smooth.
Keep the heat low to prevent the cheese from scorching.
Transfer the dip to a serving dish and serve warm with tortilla chips.
Keep the dip warm by serving it in a slow cooker on the 'warm' setting.
