Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded chicken
- 1 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup blue cheese (or ranch dressing)

Notes
Use rotisserie chicken for a quick assembly. Soften cream cheese in the microwave if too firm. For variations, reduce buffalo sauce for a milder dish, or substitute blue cheese with ranch for a milder flavor.
