Just because I could care less about anything to do with football and Sunday sports or whatever – doesn’t mean I am missing out on any delicious eats over here.

This is one of those crowd pleaser recipes that is great to snack on for any occasion. Plus it is so easy to make and takes only 20 minutes to whip up. It is a much healthier version of the buffalo dip you are used to ordering out to dinner or for an occasion. It is paleo, whole30 and made with just a few simple ingredients.

I was nervous for Jordan to try this when I made it. That guy is obsessed with all things buffalo chicken and classic game day food. And he was so into it. Not one tweak or change, which I was absolutely shocked.

You’ll see below that this recipe is a bit on the smaller side but you can totally double it and make a large dish too for a bigger crowd. These days who knows if everyone is solo or with a group with being home during this crazy time. But feel free to tweak quantities to fit the number of people you are with!

  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (I used a rotisserie chicken!)

  • Ranch dressing – this is my secret weapon here. Adds the best flavor!

  • Onion powder garlic powder and sea salt and black pepper
