My husband loves to brew beer. I was suprised but what a process it is. Right now he has a pumpkin brew going that we will be bottling later this weekend. I can’t wait to try one of them in this recipe. I’m curious to try out a beer bread recipe and combine it with this dip. I bet it’s heavenly.

There are so many great beer kits out there to get you started on home brewing. I’m currently looking through a few to find which one to purchase for his Christmas present this year. The entire process is fun to watch and even more fun to drink.

 

Ingredients

1 16 oz roll hot breakfast sausage

4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup beer (I use a local IPA but you can use what you have on hand.)

2 8 oz low fat cream cheese

1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

1/4 cup diced green onion

chips , bread or vegetables for serving

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and no longer pink. While cooking, break the sausage up into crumbles.

Place 2 cups cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder and beer in a food processor or blender. Mix until well combined.

Pour the mixture into a large bowl and add cooked sausage and the remaining 2 cups of cheddar cheese. Mix until combined.

Place mixture into an oven safe dish and bake for 15-20 minutes.

Remove from oven, Sprinkle with diced green onion and serve with chips, bread or vegetables.

Quick tip: Serve with the same beer you made it with. It will intensify the flavors of the beer and the dip.
