Or honestly, anytime dip…it’s the American way.

Ok so I could eat this DAILY with a spoon, and I have a few friends who agree. But when I think football, obviously wings are the quintessential snack….they just so damn messy, especially if you’re eating them in public! So the Buffalo Chicken Dip saves the day, delivering the spice you want and the clean shirts you need to keep the party going.

• 1 packet Hidden Valley Ranch dip mix
• 1½ cup shredded cheese (I like to mix mozzarella and cheddar)
• Carrots, celery, chips for dipping

Some people use canned chicken…I’ve been there and it’s fine. Some sisters complain when I don’t use “real” chicken, but who really wants to add more time to the job by pulling apart a rotisserie chicken or worse, cooking up your own?? These Perdue shortcuts are a lifesaver!! And they come in Buffalo flavor. So to me that’s a no brainer. Real chicken, pre-flavored. You’re welcome.

Dice up the pre-cooked chicken pieces so they are smaller than bite size. Combine wing sauce, chicken, ranch mix, and all but a handful of the cheese ( you’ll be saving that to sprinkle on top before putting in the oven)

Add the softened cream cheese and mix until all ingredients are well blended.

Spread mix into a large oven safe dish (I use a 7×11 Pyrex). Sprinkle that remaining handful of cheese on top of the dip. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

No finished product as I’m making this currently to head out to watch the game. Hope you all enjoy this SUUUUUPER dip and uh, Go Rams?
