Recipe: High-Protein Buffalo Chicken Dip for One
After realizing how much I loved the viral cottage cheese pizza bowl, I had to try it with more flavors: enter buffalo sauce!
Let me tell you know. I’ve never met a recipe with Frank’s Buffalo Sauce that I didn’t like. I am obsessed with Frank’s and honestly, the amazing thing about hot sauce is that it’s usually like 0 calories so it’s a great addition during a cut when you don’t have as much room for oils and sauces.
This delivered, y’all.
Not that I doubted it… but it’s nice to have it confirmed, ya know.
And easy, high-protein dinners are my love langauge, so it was a slam dunk.
Here’s what you’re gonna do to re-create it!
Dip Base:
1/2 cup of 4% cottage cheese (I ran out of 2%, so you could do that too to save a few calories(
1-2 tablespoons Frank’s Buffalo Sauce
60 grams of non-fat greek yogurt (make sure it’s well mixed or strain it so it’s not water-y)
1 tsp cayenne, if you want it extra spicy
Salt and pepper to taste
3 oz cooked shredded chicken (or amp it up to 4oz for even more protein!)
Toppings (pick whatever cheese you love!)
10 grams blue cheese
10 grams cheddar cheese
Directions:
Mix all the dip ingredients in a microwave safe bowl
Once mixed, put the cheese on top
Microwave for ~90 seconds
Note: I added homemade pita chips on the side and sliced cucumber! Could also be eaten with tortilla chips or fresh bread (or eaten alone!!). I love celery with buffalo chicken dip too!!
