Frequently Asked Questions

→ Could this be prepped in a crockpot?
Sure! Cook the meat first, then toss everything into the crockpot on low for about 2-3 hours.
→ Is it okay to swap the meats?
Absolutely. Use all beef, just sausage, or even turkey for a lighter version.
→ What’s the best way to keep this warm?
Leave it in a slow cooker on warm, or reheat in small batches as needed.
→ Can it go in the freezer?
Nope, freezing might mess with the creamy texture. It doesn't reheat well afterward.
→ What’s the spice level like?
Mostly mild, but add more jalapeños or hot sauce if you're after a kick!

In a skillet, cook the ground sausage and beef on medium heat. Stir until they're no longer pink, then get rid of the excess grease.

Step 03

Turn the heat down to medium-low. Toss in the Velveeta, cream cheese, and all three soups. Stir everything together.

Step 04

Blend in the chili beans and the drained diced tomatoes.

Step 05

Let it simmer for 15-20 minutes while stirring once in a while. Once the cheese is melted, top with garnishes and dish up with chips.

Notes

  1. It's best to serve this while it's warm for great consistency.
  2. Make sure to drain the meat well so it’s not greasy.
  3. Stir now and then so it doesn’t stick while cooking.
