The recipe I’ve been obsessed with for the last few months…. Buffalo Chicken Dip or more like a dinner for me. This recipe is out of this would delicious and you’d never know it’s a healthy version.
Because this recipe uses 3 chicken breasts, I’ve totally enjoyed it for dinner with a combination of tortilla chips (my carb portion) and celery (veggie portion) – there is already protein and fat in there so it definitely serves as a full meal if you’re following my Eat Your Way Lean Meal Plan guidelines.
Also, just a note… regarding the amount of hot sauce. You can always add more at the end, so I suggest starting with more of that 1/4 cup unless you know you love a kick of spice.
I’m trying out this new feature on my website where I can add the recipes in with this cool look (as shown below). You can even click the print button to download and print a version as well.
I would love to hear your feedback… what do you think of it?
