Healthier, High Protein Buffalo Chicken Dip

Where did my craving for buffalo chicken come from? I do not know. I didn’t grow up eating it and I have it maybe once a year max so the craving was random but it was satisfied sooo nicely with this dish!
David loved it too! Serve over rice (like he did), with cucumbers (like I did), or on a nice toasty piece of sourdough. No matter how you serve it, it’s so good, easy, and massively high protein.

At 245 calories a serving and 36g of protein, it’s a filling and delicious addition to your weekly meals!
