Preheat oven to 350F.
Place an oven safe skillet like a cast iron skillet on the stove over medium heat. Add the sausage to the skillet. Cook sauasge and break into crumbles.
Once the sausage is browned and crumbled, reduce heat to low and pour the entire contents of the can of rotel into the skillet. Mix with the sausage.
Place the cream cheese into the middle of the skillet and allow it to melt a little before mixing in with the sausage and rotel.
Top the skillet with the shredded cheese and place in the oven to cook uncovered at 350F for 15 minutes.
Serve warm with tortilla chips or fresh veggies for dipping.

Allow the sausage to cook until there are little browned bits on the crumbles. The browning adds more flavor to the dip
If you can't find rotel, use 6oz of diced tomatoes in liquid and 4oz can of diced green chilies.
Swap the cream cheese for blended cottage cheese to make a higher protein dip
Adjust the spice level of this dip by changing the type of rotel you buy. Mild rotel will be less spicy than original and hot will be spicier than original
