We went to a party a while back and an acquaintance brought a dip that knocked my socks off. It was so delicious I had to get the recipe. She gave me the name so I searched the internets for it. After checking out the ingredients it was clear to me that this was a recipe that had potential to be a pretty low carb snack. So of course I went out and got what I needed to make up my own batch.
Hungry Girl Buffalo Chicken Dip Recipe
2 (10 ounce) cans chicken breasts
1 (8 ounce) package fat free cream cheese, softened-
1/2 cup frank's redhot original cayenne pepper sauce
1/2 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup fat free ranch dressing
1/4 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
Directions:
1 Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2 Place cream cheese in a medium bowl and stir until smooth. Mix in Frank's RedHot, mozzarella cheese, ranch dressing, and yogurt. Stir in chicken until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture evenly into a deep 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish.
3 Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, or until mixture is heated through. Stir well and enjoy!
4 P.S. We love dipping carrot sticks and red bell pepper chunks into this dip, but we've also dunked baked tortilla chips into it and used it as a sandwich spread!
5 HG Alternative! To make this dish FAST, skip the oven altogether. Prepare dip according to the directions, but in a microwave-safe dish. Then microwave uncovered on high for 5 minutes (stopping and stirring halfway through cooking), or until hot.
This stuff is super easy to make and required less than 10 minutes to do it. We chopped up some fresh celery and peppers to dip into it which worked great. Your carb friendly fans could use tortilla chips if they wanted, but we opted out to keep it low carb. Anyway, its full of flavor, not to spicy, and a great choice to bring to a party or for watching the game. At the party I went to, it was one of the first things to go. I can't say for sure, but I would guess that the carb count is pretty low, so try it out.
