Superbowl Buffalo Chicken Dip

So the big game is just around the corner. Who’s playing? Who cares! For me it’s all about the food and the commercials. Did you know that the Super Bowl is one of the highest calorie-consuming meals of the year? This recipe is not low-calorie, but it is a crowd-pleaser! My step-daughter Emma loves it. You can “skinny it up” by using low-calorie Ranch dressing and Light Cream Cheese (Neuftachatel). I don’t recommend low-fat Cheddar cheese on top, however, because it really doesn’t really melt like real, high-fat cheese.

This is a pretty easy recipe, so you can put it together at the last minute or make it ahead (except the last step), like I did. If you already have leftover chicken on hand, the longest part of this recipe is the baking- 20 minutes before adding shredded cheese on top, 10 to 15 after. While it calls for celery, Buffalo Wings are traditionally served with carrots as well, so no reason why you couldn’t add shredded carrots with the celery if you want to up your veggie intake.

Also, although it calls for Ranch Dressing, Bleu Cheese is the normal go-to with wings, so you could use Blue Cheese Dressing in place of the Ranch. Be creative! Go crazy! It’s Superbowl Sunday. Tomorrow you can fast.

This recipe comes from Serve It Up!, the tennis cookbook I helped Sharon Williams with as a fundraiser for Autism.
