High Protein Buffalo Chicken Dip

This high protein Buffalo Chicken Dip is a bursting at the seams with melted cheese, tender chicken, and Buffalo sauce and most emphatically doesn’t taste like health food. This is another one of those recipes that “just happens to be high protein” but tastes like happiness in a pan!

High Protein Buffalo Chicken Dip

I’m almost certainly never going to be the kind of person who gives you a healthy recipe just because it’s good for you. I firmly believe that the first order of food’s business is to taste amazing. We can work around dietary restrictions so long as it makes me want to eat more! This recipe is proof that you don’t have to compromise to meet your nutritional needs.

Coming in around 35 grams of protein per serving, our healthier Buffalo chicken dip ticks all the boxes. Made with naturally protein rich ingredients, it doesn’t need any protein powders or nutritional supplements to drive it. The recipe uses ingredients easily findable in any grocery store.

If you’re a DIYer or live very rurally and can’t find Buffalo sauce in your store, you can make it even better than the jarred stuff with our legitimate Garlic Buffalo Sauce Recipe. This Buffalo gal knows her sauce!

Cottage Cheese Buffalo Chicken Dip

Don’t you love an ingredient that punches above its weight class? Cottage cheese (protein!) forms the creamy base for this irresistible Buffalo chicken dip. A trip through the blender obliterates the texture of the cottage cheese and combines it with cream cheese (more protein!) and Buffalo sauce for a smooth and creamy sauce that coats every little piece of succulent chicken (even more protein!).

You can easily double this recipe for Buffalo chicken dip with cottage cheese if you’re feeding a crowd or want leftovers. And believe me, leftovers are good to have! My guys love to lunch on Buffalo chicken wraps made from leftover dip spread on lavash or a wrap, topped with bleu cheese crumbles, and crispy leaf lettuce.

Is Buffalo chicken dip healthy? Well healthy is a debatable term, but what is certain is that this dip tastes incredible and is high in protein, potassium, calcium, and comfort. I’ll keep calling that a win!
