This Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Dip is a high-protein, low-carb twist on a classic, made with ranch dressing, hot sauce, and cheddar cheese for a gluten-free crowd-pleaser that’s perfect for any gathering!
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and lightly grease a baking dish. In a mixing bowl, stir together the cottage cheese, ranch dressing, and hot sauce until well combined.
Add the drained canned chicken and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the bowl, mixing thoroughly to incorporate all the ingredients.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Bake for 20 minutes, or until the dip is bubbly and the cheese is melted. Let it cool for 5 minutes before serving with chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.
Notes
Hint: For an extra smooth texture, blend the cottage cheese in a food processor before mixing it with the other ingredients.If you're hosting a party, you can assemble the dip ahead of time, refrigerate it, and bake it right before serving for a fresh and piping hot dish!
