Big Bleu Hot Wing Dip

So, I don't have a lot to say about tonight's game.  They're Florida. We're not.  Moving on.

One of my beau and my very favorite gameday snacks is Hot Wing Dip.  This couldn't be easier to make, combines a tangy and spicy flavors, and even sneaks a few veggies in to your gameday consumption.  I make a batch most Saturday mornings.

Heather's Big Bleu Hot Wing Dip

• 2-3 chicken breasts
• 1 8oz package cream cheese, softened
• 1 bottle hot wing sauce (I use Texas Pete)
• 1 bottle bleu cheese salad dressing
• 1 container bleu cheese crumbles
• salt
• pepper
• olive oil

Place chicken breasts in glass baking dish.   Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Bake at 350 until cooked through.  Remove from heat, allow to cool slightly, and slice into chunks.  (I often do this the night before and store in the refrigerator.)

Preheat oven to 325.  Place cream cheese in large oven-safe bowl.  Add entire bottle of hot wing sauce.   Use handheld mixer to mix until smooth.  Add bleu cheese salad dressing.  Add chicken pieces, shredding as you blend them into mixture.  Top with bleu cheese crumbles.  Bake for 20 minutes or until bubbling.

Serve with Granny Smith Apple slices, celery slices and pita chips.

Pita Chips

Cut honey-wheat pitas into wedges; bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until crunchy.
