This Franks Red Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip is perfect for any time of year. But, I especially love this dip during fall and football season! Plus, I love making and eating all the football appetizers and noms!
Additionally, when I think of football food and snacks, I think of buffalo wing sauce, chicken wings, and blue cheese dressing. Buffalo Chicken Dip is all of those things rolled into one giant baking pan slathered in cheezy goodness.
Buffalo Chicken Dip is everything I love about Buffalo Chicken Wings without the mess. Not only that, but this Franks Red Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip is perfect for gatherings and sitting around a TV watching the big game.
Ingredients in Buffalo Chicken Dip
Chicken: I prefer chicken thighs over chicken breasts. This recipe for Instant Pot Chicken Thighs (Fresh or Frozen) from author Lauren Allen on the Food Blog Tastes Better From Scratch is super informative and only takes 30 minutes.
Franks Red Hot Sauce: I love to use the OG Franks Red Hot Buffalo Sauce in my buffalo chicken dips. However, I have another brand that I love and that’s The New Primal. They have 3 levels of heat for their Buffalo Sauce, Mild, Medium, and Hot! Perfect for individualizing recipes.
Ranch
Cheese – Cream Cheese, Cheddar Cheese, Blue Cheese
Green Topping: A little garnish to finish off the bubbling Franks Red Hot Buffalo Chicken Dip. I love to add some green for contrasting colors. Green onion or chives add a crisp and fresh element to finish off this dish. Some other topping ideas are garlic scapes, parsley, or cilantro.
How to make this Easy Buffalo Chicken Dip
You can make this recipe in an air fryer or slow cooker. In these directions, I’ll review how to make this in a quart baking dish and in the oven!
Cook the Chicken: If you haven’t already, cook the chicken. You can boil, bake, or grill chicken breasts until they’re fully cooked until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Then shred or dice them. Alternatively, you can use rotisserie chicken for convenience.
Note – This step can be done 1-2 days in advance.
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F.
In a large pot, sautee diced onion and celery with 1 tbsp butterfor 5 minutes.
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: Once the veggies finish sauteeing, combine the cream cheese, ranch dressing, and buffalo sauce. Stir until well combined and smooth.
Add the Chicken: Add the cooked chicken to the bowl and mix until the chicken is evenly coated with the cream cheese mixture.
Transfer to Baking Dish: Transfer the mixture to a baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Sprinkle with Cheese: Sprinkle the cheddar and blue cheese on top of the dip.
Bake the Dip: Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the dip is hot and bubbly and the cheese on top is melted and lightly golden brown.
Let It Cool: Once done, remove the dip from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Garnish (Optional): If desired, garnish with chopped green onions, more blue cheese crumbles, or a drizzle of ranch dressing before serving.
Serve: Serve the buffalo chicken dip warm with tortilla chips, celery sticks, or carrot sticks for dipping. Enjoy!
Sharper Nutrition Fix: Three tips for cutting the perfect veggie dipper
Wash your veggies. I like to use a dedicated scrubber brush for my veggie washing.
Prep. Did you know, you can prep veggie dippers a day in advance?! Just cut your veggies and wrap them in a damp paper towel. Store in an airtight container or storage bag in the refrigerator.
Aesthetic. When choosing the veggies to pair with the dip think about what will look the most pleasing to the eye, such as the shape in which you cut your veggie dipper and the color combinations of the veggies.
Examples
Carrots: Whole carrots can have crackly and dirty-looking skin even when scrubbed really well. Peeling the outer layer transforms the carrot into a bright orange visual beauty. Then, think about the size you want the carrot to hold up the sauce or dip you have prepared. Be sure to allow for a good surface area to do so. Last, cut the carrot into 3” long and 0.5inch wide sticks. Not into all the prep? Baby carrots for the win.
Celery: Celery requires little prep work. Just wash, and slice. Celery naturally has a lovely spoon-like shape, perfect for dipping! Plus celery and carrots look beautiful paired together.

Jacob’s Famous Guacamole – Guacamole with Sun Dried Tomatoes
Who doesn’t love guacamole? Unless you have an aversion to avocados or have an allergy I can’t think of anyone! It’s a popular party food, and for good reason.
The richness of the avocados paired with the tanginess of the lime lime are magic in the mouth.
This guacamole is my Husband’s recipe. In this guacamole recipe, Jacob introduces an element I’ve never thought of… sun-dried tomatoes!
This Guacamole with Sun sun-dried tomatoes is excellent served as a dip with some chips, added to a 7-layer dip, or served alongside many dishes like roasted veggies, a plate of tacos, or air-fryer potatoes.
Ingredients
Avocado
Lime Juice – Throw in some zest too if you feel like it!
Chopped Fresh Cilantro – Flat-leaf parsley is a fantastic substitution. Something bright bringing that herbal element.
Jalapeno – if you don’t like the spicy, option to omit the jalapeño!
Garlic
Onion
Sun Dried Tomato
Step-By-Step Instructions
This is such an easy recipe, it just takes some patience to chop up all the ingredients!
This is a great recipe to make with the kids! Let them mash those avocados and be taste testers, adding pinches of salt and spritzes of lime for the perfect-tasting guacamole!
Prepare the Avocados: Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork to your desired consistency (some like it chunky, others prefer it smoother).
Add the aromatics: Add the prepared veggies, onion, garlic, cilantro, sun-dried tomatoes, and jalapeño, to the bowl with the mashed avocado.
Season: Squeeze the juice of one lime over the avocado mixture. Season the guac with salt and pepper.
Mix: Gently fold all the ingredients together. Be careful not to overmix if you prefer a chunkier texture.
Taste and Serve: Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning as needed. You might want to add more lime juice, salt, or pepper according to your preferences. You can serve it immediately or, if you have the time, refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
Avocado Tips From A Registered Dietitian
Here are three tips for using avocados in your kitchen.
Find the right Avocados: Ripening can be tricky for these little “alligator pears”.
I like to purchase my avocados hard thus before they have fully ripened. Once they have ripened on the kitchen counter or in a paper bag, I pop the avocados in the fridge.
How to ripen avocados via paper bag: As soon as I get home from the store, I ripen the avocados in a paper bag for 1 day and check them for ripeness. If it’s still hard, I keep the avocados in the paper bag for one more day and check again, and so on and so on.
Once the avocados have a slight give, I put them in the refrigerator to stop the ripening process. I take them out (within a few days) when I am ready to make my guacamole!
Avocado Storing: I asked some of my friends for avocado tips and here they are!
‘Spray with avocado/olive oil to keep fresh’
‘Squirt a little lemon on the avocado once the avocado is cut’
‘Keep the core in with the avocado while storing in the fridge’
‘I store my avocado in Tupperware and I hear that storing in water works too!’
Sharper Nutrition Fix: Avocado Nutrition
Avocado Nutrition – Think Healthy Fats and Fiber!
Research supports that Avocado consumption supports cardiovascular health.
Avocados are high in high-quality fats including MUFAs (Monounsaturated Fatty Acids) and PUFAs (Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids). This ratio of fats in the avocado helps promote the bioavailability of fat-soluble vitamins and promotes a healthy blood lipid profile.
Avocados help you feel full.
This may be related to the high fiber amount. Half of an avocado contains 4.6g of fiber and 114 kcal.
What’s more, new research suggests that Avocado consumption also promotes a healthy gut! Yay!
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a medium-sized bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork to your desired consistency (some like it chunky, others prefer it smoother).
Add the aromatics
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, chopped cilantro, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and finely chopped jalapeño to the bowl with the mashed avocado.
Season
Squeeze the juice of one lime over the avocado mixture and add salt and pepper.
Mix well
Gently fold all the ingredients together until everything is evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix if you prefer a chunkier texture.
Taste and Serve
Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning as needed. You might want to add more lime juice, salt, or pepper according to your taste preferences.
You can serve it immediately or refrigerate it for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together before serving.
Notes
What do I mean by small chop?The term 'chop" is a casual, imprecise term that simply means to roughly cut food into bite-sized pieces. So for a small chop smaller than a regular chop but larger than a mince.

Cowboy Caviar is sometimes also called Texas caviar or cowboy dip. I love to bring it to potlucks with a big ole bag of corn tortilla chips.
Dietitian tip, this is also a cowboy caviar salad.
Cowboy Caviar Ingredients
Lentils – I always make Cowboy Caviar using at least 2 different legumes. Usually, I use 2 different-sized legumes, but for this recipe, I decided to celebrate the new year by swapping in Lentils.
Beans – I used black beans
Sweet Corn – option to use canned, fresh, or frozen corn
Peppers – options to use green bell pepper, yellow bell pepper, or red bell peppers.
Spice tip: You can completely omit the jalapeno or only add 1 to reduce the heat. However, if you want the dish super spicy, don’t remove the ribs or seeds of the jalapeno. This is where most of the jalapenos’ heat comes from.
Onions – shallots, white, sweet, yellow, or red onions work well.
Herbs – I decided to use parsley
Herb Tip: Consider swapping the parsley with cilantro or any other herb you love!
Optional ingredients –avocado, tomatoes, black eye peas, or spicy peppers
Cowboy Caviar Dressing Recipe
I like to keep this dressing simple with only five ingredients – oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper.
Use a flavorful olive oil. There is no actual cooking in this recipe, so there is no need for the extra virgin stuff. For the vinegar, I used a lovely lemon champagne vinegar on hand. You could use white balsamic, champagne, or red wine vinegar, or add some freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice.
Ever been to one of those fancy olive oil and vinegar shops? Those are perfect for a recipe like this. I bought a raspberry white balsamic vinegar that, if I still had it, would have tasted divine in this dish!
Or keep it simple with a store-bought or homemade Italian dressing.
How To Make Cowboy Caviar
First, chop all your veggies. Then pour them in a large bowl. I try to keep my veggie pieces roughly the size of a black bean.
Next, Mix! Add all the dressing ingredients to a bowl or mason jar, then whisk or shake! Then pour the salad dressing over your veggies and mix!
Finally, serve!
How To Serve This Recipe
Some options for serving this yummy dish include:
In an Endive (lettuce) cup
With Crackers or Chips
As a fun and creative Bruschetta
Right out of a bowl!
I enjoy using ramekins as small serving bowls as a side dish with dinner.
Sharper Nutrition Fix: Lentils
Lentils are also inexpensive, healthy, environmentally friendly, and easy to make! It’s no surprise that lentils are a major food source throughout the Americas, Caribbean, and Mediterranean regions.
Let’s dive a little deeper, shall we!?
Why You Will Love Making This Recipe with Lentils
Lentils are an all-star flexitarian staple I always keep on hand in my pantry.
Inexpensive
Lentils only cost about $1.50 for a 16oz bag at Kroger, a local grocery store in Huntsville. Lentils are available for purchase at most grocery stores. Because lentils do not take long to cook, I recommend purchasing dried lentils to get the most bang for your buck!
Healthy
Lentils are high in fiber, protein, vitamins and minerals. Combine lentils with a whole grain, and you have a complete protein source with all nine essential amino acids.
Fun fact: Populations with the greatest lentil consumption also have the lowest rates of cancer, specifically breast and colorectal.
Good for the Environment
Lentils are green, and I don’t mean the color! Lentils work with bacteria that convert atmospheric nitrogen to useful ammonia or nitrates. They also improve soil fertility and are highly water-efficient.
Quick and Easy
Did you know that dried lentils are quick to whip up? Just 15 minutes on the stove, and you are good to go! Dried Lentils are much quicker to cook than dried beans.
Versatile
You will find many cowboy caviar recipes on the internet. For example, Pioneer Woman Cowboy Caviar uses black-eyed peas instead of lentils. Other recipes include avocado whereas my cowboy salad recipe does not include it. You can get creative with flavors or just use what you have on hand!

In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn, black beans, cooked lentils, jalapeno, bell pepper, red pepper, shallots, and parsley.
Make The Dressing
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the dressing ingredients.
Combine and Toss
Pour salad dressing overtop of your veggies. Gently toss everything together until well combined, making sure the dressing coats all the ingredients evenly.
Adjust Seasoning and Serve
Before serving, give the cowboy caviar a good stir. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
Serve the cowboy caviar as a dip with tortilla chips or as a side salad. It also works well as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.
