Ingredients

  • 16 oz Hot pork sausage I use Jimmy Dean brand
  • 16 oz Regular pork sausage I use Jimmy Dean brand
  • 2 T + 2 tsp canned diced jalapeños, I don't drain the liquid. add more for more heat and spice
  • 16 oz sour cream, can use light
  • 8 oz cream cheese
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon dried chopped onion* optional, see notes

Instructions

  • In a large pan over medium heat, brown the sausage. Crumbling it up into small pieces as you go. 
  • Once the sausage is brown and cooked all the way through, drain any liquid. Add the cream cheese, sour cream, diced jalapeños, dried chopped onion (if using), and onion powder. 
  • Turn heat down to medium-low. Stir until cream cheese is melted and all of the ingredients are incorporated 
  • Serve warm with tortilla chips.

Notes

*I use dried onion because that's what my mother-in-law uses when she makes this dip. If you don't have dried onion you can eliminate it completely or you can chop up half an onion (about 1/2 cup or so) and add it when you are browning the sausage.
Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 7-9 days. I don't recommend freezing due to the sour cream and cream cheese.
Use this dip to make stuffed jalapeños and omit the diced jalapeños or use as a topping for baked potatoes.
