In preparation for a few Christmas parties I'm trying out a new appetizer recipe - Frank's RedHot Buffalo Chicken Dip. My niece Paulina has made this for some of our family gatherings in the past. I have recently become addicted to the Subway Buffalo Chicken sub, so I thought this would be a great recipe to try out.
It sure looks yummy!
Servings: 4 cups dip
Prep Time: 5
Cook Time: 20
INGREDIENTS:
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup blue cheese or ranch salad dressing

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese or shredded mozzarella cheese
2 cans (12.5 oz. each) White Premium Chunk Chicken Breast in Water, drained

TIPS:
