Buffalo Chicken Dip with Greek Yogurt Ingredients

Healthy Buffalo Chicken Dip with Greek Yogurt is packed with flavor and nutrition, yet only requires five basic ingredients!

Chicken: Use fresh chicken breast for the best results!

Ranch Seasoning: This gives the recipe all the flavor as if there were an entire bottle of Ranch dressing without out the added calories and fat!

Greek Yogurt: There’s no cream cheese in this recipe, so the greek yogurt is vital! It makes the dip creamy and adds a punch of protein!

Cheddar Cheese: Cheese is personal. I used a cup and sprinkled to my hearts desire on top, but that could be different from what you like.

Buffalo Sauce: Use any brand you prefer but I use Sweet Baby Ray’s. It is flavorful yet not too spicy. If you want some extra spice add in a few shakes of Frank’s Red Hot!

Buffalo Chicken Dip without Cream Cheese

Cream cheese has always been a staple to a creamy and delicious batch of buffalo chicken dip, until now! This recipe utilizes greek yogurt and removes the cream cheese entirely!

Cream cheese tends to be higher in calories and fat than greek yogurt. That’s why this swap makes for a healthier and dietitian approved dip! It also creates the creamy texture buffalo dip is known for. Good thing greek yogurt is also creamy!

Another reason I love that this recipe uses greek yogurt instead of cream cheese is the convenience factor! First off, it is 10x more likely I have plain greek yogurt in my fridge than cream cheese. Secondly, you need to allow cream cheese to soften in order to work with it. Greek yogurt is always ready to use!

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Dip with Greek Yogurt

This dip is easy! There are two main steps and only takes about 30 minutes (which is mainly just cooking time!).

Start by boiling your chicken. Add the breasts to a pot, fill with water, and cook until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of at least 165 degrees fahrenheit.

Next, shred it up and begin to preheat your oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit. Then, add all the ingredients to your casserole dish and pop it in the oven for 15 minutes!

All that there is left to do is decide how you’ll enjoy it!
