OK so apparently I can tweak Franks Red Hot’s Buffalo Chicken Dip because I have gotten nothing but good reviews. I was a bit scared it would not turn out good but I even liked it and I am my worst critic. So let’s talk tweaks. So to start off, I did simple things such as lite cream cheese and fresh boneless skinless chicken breast. I substituted the blue cheese with nonfat feta, and made a blue cheese dressing substitute with low fat Greek yogurt and blue cheese crumbles. The biggest tweak I was surprised about was the hot sauce. I changed the Franks red Hot out for Texas Pete and lost just a little over 5000 mg in sodium…. *shock* So that said let’s talk Pro’s and con’s.
Pro:
Reduced the Calories by 1/2
Reduced Fat by 2/3
Made it with fresh chicken breast
Added a little fiber
Cons:
The Texas Pete made it spicier (con for some yum for me)
So be low is the breakdown of the Mine vs. Original and the full recipe is here.
