This recipe is not only tasty, but it is also low carb and keto. It makes enough for eight servings, and each serving is under 400 calories and high in protein. To make this paleo or dairy free, simply sub the cream cheese with a good-quality dairy-free cream cheese like Kite Hill.
How long does buffalo chicken dip last?
This dip shouldn’t be left out for more than two hours. It will last covered in the fridge for around 4 to 5 days, so it’s great to make ahead of time and you don’t have to throw leftovers out! It can be reheated in the microwave or on the stovetop – because it has chicken in it, you should only reheat it once.
