This stuff is da bomb...

"This tangy, creamy dip tastes just like buffalo chicken wings. It's best served hot with crackers and Celery sticks. Everyone loves the results!"
Original recipe yield: 5 cups.



Buffalo Chicken Dip
Prep Time:5 MinutesCook Time:40 MinutesReady In:45 MinutesServings:20

INGREDIENTS:
2 (10 ounce) cans chunk chicken, drained
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup Ranch dressing
3/4 cup pepper sauce, such as Franks® Red Hot®
1 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese

1 bunch celery, cleaned and cut into 4 inch pieces
1 (8 ounce) box chicken-flavored crackers

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTIONS:
Heat chicken and hot sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through. Stir in cream cheese and ranch dressing. Cook, stirring until well blended and warm. Mix in half of the shredded cheese, and transfer the mixture to a slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top, cover, and cook on Low setting until hot and bubbly.

It's yummy and you can go reduced fat on it without screwing it up too much.

I like it on bagguettes..its shredded chicken (or canned, but I can taste the can sometimes its better with shredded chicken) , cream cheese, buffalo sauce, blue cheese or ranch, and I top ours with chedder and bake. Super easy and really good.


you can put the same mixture in pizza dough and make calzones OR roll it up and make buffalo chicken pinwheels. Always a big hit.

OMG a Buffalo chicken dip pizza!

 

[SoMDGirl42]

No, I meant what flavor ofsalad dressing: Thousand Island, Italian, Green Goddess, French, etc

It seems that if they wanted you to use mayo or Miracle Whip, they would have said that especifically.

Miracle Whip is a brand. If you buy generic, it's sold as Food Lioin Salad Dressing as an example of generic.

But which ever brand you use, I can attest, this shiat is like crack!!! OMG so good.

One that goes over really well at our house...

1 Bag Tostitos Scoops
1lb. Ground Beef
Taco Seasoning
1 Can Old El Paso Refried Beans
1 block (8 oz.) Helluva Good Colby Jack Cheese
Mount Olive Sliced Jalapeno peppers
1lb. Sour Cream

Brown ground beef and drain. Add taco seasoning and refried beans. Cut cheese into cubes small enough to fit into scoops. Place scoops on a baking sheet. Add a spoon of ground beef mixture, one cube of cheese, and a jalapeno slice. Place in 350 degree oven until cheese is melted. Top with sour cream. Enjoy!

These get eaten up quite quickly when I make them. I've even made them with low-fat/fat-free ingredients and they still taste good!

Easy and addicting, I'm sure. Not sure why I haven't thought of making something like that. Hubby loves Tacos and is a major pita when it comes to appetizers. I always make a bunch of apps that he won't eat because everyone else pigs 'em down. I'll be making those at our next Fall party, thanks for sharing.

Yum.......buffalo chicken dip calzones or pinwheels? I also like the dip with baguettes instead of tortilla chips like you do. And I agree with using real chicken and shredding it. I just can't get myself to even try the canned chicken, although it sure would be a quicker way to get this dip made. For some reason, canned chicken just doesn't appeal to me.

If I find out that anyone has used canned chicken, I will come over to your house and beat you silly. That shiat is n-a-s-t-y. As easy as it is to roast a chicken, I can't imagine why anyone would use canned. And if you absolutely can't cook a roasted chicken (and if you can't, that brings up bigger issues that you need to deal with.....), then march yourself over to BJ's or Giant and pick up an already-roasted chicken. It really is that damn easy.

And again, if I find out that anybody actually purchases canned chicken, I will beat you with a REAL raw chicken. I'm aghast that they even make the stuff.

I typically use leftover rotisserie chicken.

Well, I sure don't want to be beat with a raw chicken. Glad to hear my instincts were correct and that I'm not missing anything by skipping the canned "chicken".

Easy, easy, easy. That's what works while trying to cook with a 2 year old!

I have it on good source that itsbob purposely buys canned chicken so he can wave it around shouting "Who's a bad boy? Who's a bad boy?" on Kink Night just to entice her to whip out the raw chicken and beat him with it... I think the video is on youtube.

Gearing up for football season, I saw this tread and just remembered I took a pic of the bruschetta I made back in the spring, perfect for football (can hold with one hand - very important).

It's ciabatta bread (or any day old bread), first drizzled with olive oil, then toasted until crispy (a few minutes) then rubbed with garlic. Stack with diced 'maters, fontina cheese (a great melting cheese), and prosciutto. 350F until it melts. You can make as many of them as you like, they'll be devoured. And the house will smell awesome.

Enjoy!

Are you a chef?

Quit smoking a year ago, and the taste buds woke up. Started to cook (even though I've always enjoyed cooking), and appreciating good food. Been sort of obsessed with it ever since.
