Freezer-Friendly Classic Buffalo Chicken Dip

No football game would be complete without some version of Buffalo Chicken Dip. The buffalo sauce is a processed food, but I think using it infrequently is reasonable.

This dip freezes well after you cook it. So, enjoy half and freeze the rest to easily enjoy on another game day.

This low-carb dip (less than 2 grams per serving) is quintessential “game day” food. Pair it with celery sticks to keep it low carb, or serve it with corn chips if you prefer.
