Variations & Additions

  • Corn – We used frozen corn in this recipe, but you can use canned corn instead. Just make sure to drain it before adding to the slow cooker.

  • Creamier Dip – For a a creamier dip option, you can stir in a cup of sour cream.
  • Bacon Bits – If you have some cooked bacon, crumble the bacon and serve over the top.

Tips & Tricks

  • Cheese – We recommend shredding the cheese yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese. It has added ingredients and doesn’t always melt very well.
  • Cream Cheese – Once the cream cheese has melted and combined with the other ingredients, set your slow cooker to warm. This keeps the cream cheese from curdling.
  • Sausage – After spicy sausage is browned and drained, add to the slow cooker with the other ingredients.
