AWESOME ITALIAN SAUSAGE CREAM CHEESE DIP



Awesome Italian Sausage Cream Cheese Dip image

Here is a simple recipe for an awesome dip. I had a similar dip like this at the Old Ebbitt Grill in Washington DC. Didn't get the actual recipe, but I had a good idea what was in it. It goes well with a good crusty bread, chips, or tortillas. This recipe has a minimum of ingredients, and once complete, you can add additional...

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 lb pound of Italian sausage (mild or hot)
2 medium tomatoes, about 10 ounces
2 medium jalapeños, about 4 ounces
1 or 2 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
15 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 c sour cream
salt, kosher variety, to taste
ground pepper, freshly ground, to taste
cayenne pepper, optional
ground cumin, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Gather your ingredients.
  • 2. Remove the skins from the tomatoes (blanching) and small dice.
  • 3. De-seed the jalapeños and small dice.
  • 4. Place the Italian sausage in a skillet over medium heat.
  • 5. Cook until no longer pink.
  • 6. Chef's Note: As the sausage is cooking, break into small bits with a wooden spoon.
  • 7. Pour out any excess oil, and then add the tomatoes, chilies, and crushed red pepper.
  • 8. Cook for about 5 minutes, and then cover, turn heat down to low, and allow to lightly simmer for an additional 5 minutes, or until the peppers are softened.
  • 9. Remove from heat, and then add the cream cheese.
  • 10. Stir until fully incorporated.
  • 11. Add the sour cream.
  • 12. Stir until fully incorporated.
  • 13. Chef's Note: Using your taste buds, add a bit of salt, pepper, or any additional spices that you feel will help.
  • 14. Chef's Note: Add spices a bit at a time and then taste... season and taste. Remember, good cooks always taste their food.
  • 15. Serve with tortilla chips, sliced baguette or thick ripple potato chips. Enjoy.
  • 16. Chef's Tip: This really does taste good right out of the pan, but it does taste better the next day. I let it cool down on the counter for about an hour or so, and then place into a bowl, cover with a bit of cling wrap, and then place in the fridge... This gives the spices and flavors a chance to get to know each other better. The only problem with this is that it seldom makes it to the refrigerator...
  • 17. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

Instant Pot ® Italian-Style Sausage-Queso Dip image

Tired of the same old queso? Change things up next game day by making this one. I came up with this after craving Italian nachos from a restaurant chain I used to frequent while living in a different city. You can also make this recipe on a stove, but you need longer cook times.

ITALIAN SAUSAGE & CANNELLINI BEAN DIP



Italian Sausage & Cannellini Bean Dip image

Hubby drives buses for Sarasota County Area Transit, best known as SCAT. Every 4-6 weeks they like to have a potluck lunch for the drivers on duty on Sunday as a treat since a lot of local restaurants the drivers like are closed, and Sundays there aren't as many drivers on duty as the routes are modified to the most used...

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 lb bulk italian sausage, cooked, drained, and broken into bite size pieces
1 medium onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 6 oz can black olives, drained and sliced
2 15.5 oz cans cannellini beans [white kidney beans] drained
1 7 oz can chopped green chile's
2 10 oz cans rotel diced tomatoes, mexican lime & cilantro flavored, undrained
4 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened
1 16 oz package sour cream
2 tsp minced garlic, or to suit your taste
2 Tbsp fresh ground black peppercorns, or to suite taste

Steps:

  • 1. Brown, and break apart while cooking, the Italian sausage in a heavy skillet on medium heat to prevent burnt meat. If you prefer something spicier, get the Hot Italian bulk sausage. Or, you can use regular bulk sausage. Once the meat is cooked through, drain fat off by letting the meat cool on paper towels.
  • 2. While the sausage is cooking, chop the onion, red pepper, slice the drained black olives into a medium bowl to add later.
  • 3. Put the 2 cans of drained cannellini beans in a large bowl with the can of chopped green chilies. I used my metal potato masher [not a small squared shapes plastic masher] to start mixing the beans and the chilies.
  • 4. Add the two cans of undrained Rotel diced tomatoes, and 1 block of cream cheese at a time, and blend it in with the potato masher until roughly smooth. Blend in the sour cream, garlic, and black pepper with the potato masher until the mixture is fairly smooth.
  • 5. Add the cooled, drained, sausage as you break the meat apart into smaller pieces. Add the bowl of chopped veggies and fold it all into the mixture until well blended. If you have a lid for your large mixing bowl, just snap it on, and chill several hours before serving. I had to divide my batch between two large rectangular containers with tight fitting lids.
