This dip is a classic but is the healthier version of a traditional buffalo chicken dip. What’s the secret ingredient that is helping make it healthier? You guessed it, cottage cheese!
Cottage cheese melts down to a nice creamy texture and you can’t even tell it is in this dip! It adds creaminess without the extra calories and fat that can come from cream cheese.
This recipe works really well for a party or for a snack meal prep, actually it would even go well in a wrap or on top of a salad! You can use this any way you want!
Ingredients
Method
- Preheat your oven to 375°F.
- In a blender or food processor, blend the cottage cheese until smooth and creamy, or you can just mix it in and stir it after it is melted.
- In a large bowl, combine the blended cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, hot sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well mixed.
- Fold in the shredded chicken, shredded mozzarella cheese, and chopped green onions. If using blue cheese, add it now.
- Spread the mixture into a 9-inch baking dish or an oven-safe skillet.
- Or, use your favorite 1/2 -1 cup oven safe containers and divide the mixture into 1/2 cup servings to bake and have meal prepped for the week.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly.
