Notes

  • Can I Make this Low Carb Buffalo Chicken Dip Ahead?
  • Yes! You can very easily make this keto buffalo dip ahead of time if you would like. For this, follow the recipe directions. But instead of putting it in the oven to bake, cover and place in the fridge.
  • When you are ready to bake it, place a casserole dish in the oven and let it cook for longer (about 5 to 10 extra minutes than stated in the recipe). 
  • You can make this creamy dip up to 24 hours ahead. 
  • Can I freeze Buffalo Dip?
  • No! It contains cream cheese that will alter its texture and also will lack some of the fresh flavors when thawed.
  • Storage
  • Our keto buffalo chicken dip leftovers keep well in the fridge, covered, for up to 2 days.
  • Reheat it at a preheated 350 degrees F for 10-15 minutes or until hot.
