Ingredients

  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 1 cup cooked ground sausage (mild or spicy), crumbled
  • 1 (4 oz) can diced green chiles, drained
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
  • Crackers, tortilla chips, or bread slices (for serving)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a medium baking dish or cast-iron skillet.
  2. Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned and crumbled. Drain excess grease.
  3. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, sour cream, and mayonnaise until smooth.
  4. Stir in cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, cooked sausage, green chiles, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, cayenne, salt, and black pepper until evenly combined.
  5. Spread mixture into prepared dish. Bake uncovered for 25–30 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.
  6. Garnish with parsley if desired. Serve warm with chips, crackers, or bread.

Notes

  • Use mild or spicy sausage depending on desired heat.
  • For extra flavor, add a dash of hot sauce or smoked paprika.
  • Best served hot immediately after baking, but can be reheated gently.
