Buffalo Chicken Dip

It's Friday and we are "working for the weekend" around here! What are your plans? If there are males in your household, I'm betting it will be to watch some football. This buffalo chicken dip is a great dish to feed your hungry guys.. Serve it with some Frito or Tostito brands scoops and watch your fans "huddle up" and give you a rousing cheer for being the best!

Buffalo Chicken Dip

2 lbs chicken, cooked and shredded ( I use chicken breasts)

12 oz. hot sauce (this is way too much for my taste. Start adding small amounts until you get the amount of heat you and your family like)

2 (8oz) cream cheese

16 oz bottle Ranch salad dressing

8 oz bag of shredded sharp cheese

Melt together cream cheese and ranch dressing in saucepan on stove. Remove from heat and stir in hot sauce to taste and shredded chicken. Transfer to 9 x13 casserole and evenly sprinkle with shredded cheese. Cover with foil and bake at 350 for 20 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes.

*Nan's notes: this makes a large amount, therefore, the recipe can be easily halved for a smaller number of "eaters."

Happy cooking!
