Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Pork Sausage Breakfast or spicy style
  • 16 oz Sour Cream Full-fat recommended
  • 8 oz Velveeta Cheese Cubed small
  • 4 oz Muenster Cheese Freshly shredded
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Dried Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F. Coat a 9x9-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray, ensuring the sides are well-covered.
  • Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it into small, bite-sized crumbles. Cook until no pink remains (about 8-10 minutes).
  • Drain the sausage grease thoroughly by patting the meat with paper towels.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked sausage, sour cream, cubed Velveeta, shredded Muenster, onion powder, garlic powder, dried parsley, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir until well distributed.
  • Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top into an even layer.
  • Bake at 350°F for 30 to 40 minutes until the edges are bubbling and the cheese is completely melted.
  • Let sit for 2-3 minutes before serving with tortilla chips, corn chips, or toasted baguette slices.

Notes

For extra creaminess, use a hand mixer to whip the sour cream and Velveeta together before adding other ingredients. This recipe can be assembled a day in advance and refrigerated until ready to bake.
