Football Season & Chicken Wing Dip

One of my favorite indulgences during football season is buffalo chicken wings dipped in blue cheese dressing – fabulously delicious but messy. Since we only eat them 3-4 times a year I’ve never bothered trying to make them from scratch, we just go to our local place and order take out. And then my friend Karen made her chicken wing dip for a BBQ. Wow, talk about an outstanding dip! It tasted exactly like Buffalo wings but without the mess! The recipe is simple; it was passed to Karen by a friend so I’m not sure where it ultimately originated. You can find many variations on the web that include other types of dressings/cheese but I prefer sticking to the original ingredients. Here it is – mix in a bowl; 1¼ pounds chopped chicken (use leftover grilled chicken or cut from a rotisserie chicken, canned chicken can work too), and ½ cup of your favorite buffalo wing sauce until the chicken is coated. Then add in one 8oz package softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup blue cheese dressing (I used lite), and 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese. Stir together, place in an oven or microwave safe bowl and heat until warm. Serve with celery sticks, pretzels and/or wheat crackers – be careful it’s addicting!
