MARRY ME DIP with spicy Italian sausage is my new favorite appetizer-perfect for the holidays, game day or whenever you want something extra cozy and delicious! I make this often for guests and love to serve it with over crostini, but veggies or crackers work too! I guarantee that it you serve this, it will be devoured and gone in minutes. It has all the flavors of creamy marry me chicken, but instead of chicken, I added spicy Italian sausage to give it a little kick! This is also a fantastic dish to make ahead of time and reheat when ready to serve. It comes together in minutes and can also be made dairy free if you use df swaps! I can’t wait for you to try this and come back and tell me what you think! Makes 8-10 servings 1 tb olive oil (I’m using @latourangelle) 1 small onion, finely diced 10 oz spicy italian sausage 8 oz cream cheese, softened 3/4 cup sour cream 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded 1 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated 3 cloves garlic, mashed 1 to italian seasoning 1/4 tsp salt 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, in oil, drained and chopped 2 cups fresh spinach In a 10-12 inch cast-iron skillet (or oven safe pan), add the olive oil. Once hot, add the diced onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes before adding the sausage. Continue to cook, breaking down the sausage into small pieces. Once the sausage is fully cooked through, remove the pan from the heat and set aside (but keep the pan, you will use it again. Next, preheat the oven to 375F. In a large bowl, add the softened cream cheese, sour cream, mozzarella cheese, parmesan cheese, garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, tomatoes, cooked sausage/onion mixture and spinach. Mix everything together well, making sure everything is evenly coated. Transfer the mixture back to the skillet, using a spatula or back of the spoon to spread evenly. Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 20-22 minutes or until it is heated throughout and bubbly. Serve warm with sliced bread, a baguette or crackers. ENJOY! #marrymedip #holidayappetizers #easyrecipes
