BBQ Chicken Dip

It's almost playoff season and that means time for football parties!  We have a Superbowl party coming up, so I'm pulling out ideas for our annual "dip off" appetizer cook-off competition.

In Upstate New York, where I spend most of the football season, the big thing is buffalo chicken dip, but I'm more of a barbecue girl so I tried out this recipe and got all thumbs up. Even from that die-hard Buffalonian boyfriend of mine.

I just whipped this easy appetizer up in a few minutes (the chicken was already cooked) and everyone thought it was great.
BBQ Chicken Dip
Adapted from: Plain Chicken

Ingredients:

  • 12 oz cooked chicken, chopped or shredded (about 3 chicken breasts, I think shredding is better)
  • 1 (8oz) block cream cheese, softened (1 cup)
  • 3/4 cup bbq sauce (I used Kinders this time, but I think I prefer Sweet Baby Rays)
  • 1/4 cup ranch dressing
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1 green onion, chopped

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Lightly grease an 8x8 baking dish.

In a mixing bowl combine chicken, cream cheese, sour cream, ranch dressing, barbecue sauce, and 1 cup of cheddar cheese.

Pour mixture into prepared 8x8 baking dish.

Top the dip with chopped green onion and remaining cheese (according to my friend "whatever amount they say for cheese, double it" so I put a little extra cheese on top... And I didn't have any green onions--in the past I have omitted them--but this time I diced up some white onion and put a little bit on top).

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until bubbly.

CHOCOLATE MARBLE QUICK BREAD RECIPE

Image
Serve this fresh homemade Chocolate Marble Quick Bread that was a breeze to make using a whisk. Quick bread eliminates multiple steps, kneading and waiting for dough to rise. With minimal efforts, we are rewarded with a gorgeous loaf/ Have reduced the sugar a bit since I intend to ice the cake later. Am so glad that this Chocolate Marble Quick Bread turned out just right, the way I want it. You can sub yogurt with sour cream if you have but this MUNDELLA Premium Natural Yogurt I used did a great job. It is a perfect tea companion and swirls of vanilla and chocolate batter produce impressively beautiful treat. Over the years, I have shared some quick bread recipes, here are a few that you might be interested: Vegan Homemade Doughnuts Irish Barmbrack Fantastic Apricot Bread

CLASSIC BREAD PUDDING

Image
This Classic Bread Pudding is an easy dessert using a stale bread soaked in a milky egg mixture. I used to make it using my white sandwich bread, crust removed then cubed, but today I made this Classic Bread Pudding with multi grain bread, cut the slice into half length wise. Also baked this pudding in my 9 x 11 in baking pan instead of the heavy glass dish. It does not matter what utensil you choose, it still turns out great. The advantage of using a glass dish is that it can go from oven straight to dining table. It can be customize to your liking by adding cinnamon, nutmeg or lemon zest. If you are a chocolate lover, add a cup of chopped bittersweet chocolate or add in fruits like banana (2), blueberry, strawberry, raspberry (2 cup) or dried fruit (1 cup) just before baking. This simple Classic Bread Pudding came out beautiful and and taste exactly the same I enjoyed as a child.
