Ingredients
Cheesy Buffalo Chicken Ingredients:
- 2 cups of shredded cooked chicken*
- 6 ounces of cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup of ranch dressing
- 1/3 cup hot sauce
- 6 ounces of shredded cheddar cheese
Bowl Ingredients:
- 6 cups spring mix lettuce
- 3 cups cooked (white, brown or cauliflower) rice
- 1 1/2 cup diced fresh tomato
- 1 1/2 cup diced fresh avocado
- 3/4 cup crumbled blue cheese
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
Instructions
To make Cheesy Buffalo Chicken:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees
- In a large bowl mix together the cream cheese, ranch dressing, hot sauce, and cheese
- Add the chicken and combine well
- Transfer to a (8 inch) baking dish, and bake for 20 minutes
To assemble the bowls:
I like using wide, shallow bowls. For each bowl use approximately 1 cup of lettuce, 1/2 cup cheesy buffalo chicken, 1/2 cup rice, 1/4 cup diced tomato, 1/4 cup diced avocado, 2-3 tablespoons blue cheese, 1 tablespoon red onion
Notes
* I’ve found that boiling chicken lends to the best consistency for shredding, however I usually use a rotisserie chicken for this recipe – it’s much easier!
If you you have leftover buffalo chicken, it’s delicious as a dip with your favorite tortilla chips, crackers or vegetables for dipping.
