Keto Buffalo Chicken Casserole

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: cottage cheese

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: colby jack cheese

Colby jack cheese is often less expensive and melts well.

buffalo sauce

🥗Healthier: homemade hot sauce

💰Cheaper: sriracha

Sriracha can provide a similar heat at a lower cost.

cooked bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: pork bacon

Turkey bacon is a leaner option, while pork bacon is typically cheaper.

Start with rotisserie chicken and chop it into bite-sized pieces.

Add about 1/4 cup of cream to the chicken.

Add about 1/4 cup of Frank's hot sauce, adjusting to taste.

Add cream cheese, cubed, to the mixture.

Add 1/4 cup of crumbled blue cheese.

Add a little bit of pepper for flavor, but no salt due to the saltiness of other ingredients.

Mix everything together until the cream cheese is spread throughout.

Preheat the oven to 400°F (204°C).

Transfer the mixture into a 9-inch baking container (or an 8x8 baking pan).

Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, checking on it while baking.

While it's baking, cut up celery sticks for dipping, accounting for about one stick per person.

Tip: You can prepare the chicken mixture the night before and refrigerate it.

For celery, place cut sticks in a glass with water, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate to keep them crisp.

After baking, drizzle more hot sauce on top if desired, and sprinkle with sliced green onions before serving.
