What I Love About This Recipe

What You Will Need
- Shredded Chicken: Check out this post on 3 Ways to Shred Chicken for ideas, but you can always use a rotisserie chicken if you want (I would check your ingredients though – some rotisserie chicken contain lots of weird ingredients!).
- Frank’s Red Hot, Homemade Buffalo Sauce or Paleo Store-Bought Buffalo Sauce
- Dairy-Free Cream Cheese: I used this type of dairy-free cream cheese through testing and it worked amazing!
- (Optional) Ranch Dressing: If you want your dip EXTRA creamy and not quite as thick I would suggest adding in some ranch dressing to thin it out. I used my homemade version, but this store-bought is great too!
- Toppings: celery and green onions
