Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip

Serve with crackers, pita chips, nacho chips, celery sticks, or on its own. It's that yummy!
**PARTY TIP***  Take it in a small crock pot so it stays warm.  :)

Ingredients

  • 2 large chicken breasts cooked and shredded (If you don't have a local source, get safe, pastured chicken online here.)
  • 3/4 cup celery chopped
  • 1/2 onion chopped
  • 3 Tablespoons pastured butter or ghee
  • 16 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup ranch dressing Try my homemade ranch dressing – it's easy!
  • 1/2 cup – 1.5 cup of your favorite hot sauce taste-test before adding all of it to make sure it's not too spicy for you. Some use Franks, but I love a Sriracha sauce I found that has a pretty good ingredient label.
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
  • optional: bacon chopped into small pieces!

Instructions

  • Sauté onion and celery in butter ‘til they’re a little softer but still crunchy.  Mix cream cheese, ranch dressing, and hot sauce together until creamy -- I use a hand-held blender.  Then stir everything together, pour into a 9×13 glass baking dish and top with cheese. Bake until hot.
