Notes

*Use any cooked or leftover chicken--shredded, pulled, cubed, or diced. A rotisserie chicken from the store works great in a rush.
**You can use regular cream cheese if you prefer.
You can use blue cheese dressing instead of the Greek yogurt and blue cheese crumble combo if you prefer. Of course, this will increase the calorie count--but it will taste good!
Tips:
  • If you love blue cheese, feel free to stir more than ⅓ cup into the dip!
  • If you prefer a cold dip, simply combine ingredients and serve as is. As long as the chicken is pre-cooked, there's no need to bake.
  • Obviously I really like the flavor of blue cheese, but you can just as easily make this buffalo chicken wing dip without it. Replace it with feta or goat cheese crumbles, or skip them entirely. You can sprinkle shredded cheddar, mozzarella, or another cheese on top as well.
Make-Ahead: Combine the ingredients and place them in a baking dish, then cover it and keep it in the fridge for a few hours before a party. That way, it's ready to go right into the oven as soon as guests show up!
Storage: Store buffalo chicken dip in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days.
