Slow Cooker Turkey Sausage Queso

Ok, I know that everyone has at least some variation of this recipe, but it is too good not to share!! This is literally the easiest queso ever. I have one of those mini crock pots and it is seriously perfecto for things like this. My version of this timeless classic combines Velveeta, Rotel mild diced tomatoes with green chilies, precooked crumbled turkey sausage and reduced fat cream cheese. There is a little bit of work to chop and saute the onion and jalapeno, but it is totally worth it!!
