Challenger’s Statement:

I love Buffalo wings. This is a much less guilty version that you don’t need to drag out the deep fryer to make! I can make safe Buffalo Wings, but I really missed the blue cheese dressing to dip them in. The bean mixture provides a ranch dressing like taste to offset the spiciness of the Buffalo Chicken meat. If you’re in a rush, safe canned chicken meat makes this recipe REALLY quick and easy. Enjoy!

Great Northern beans can successfully be used instead of the cannellini beans.

You can adjust the spiciness of this dip by adjusting the ratio of margarine to hot sauce. Keep a total of 4 Tbsp, but add more margarine and less hot sauce if you want it more mild. The recipe as written is a mild/medium heat level. Use 1 Tbsp hot sauce to 3 Tbsp margarine for a more mild flavor.

Make sure your non dairy milk alternative is UNFLAVORED, vanilla just will not work in this recipe!

Butter and Margarine: Butter is a dairy product made from cow’s milk. Margarine typically contains milk or soy, but there are milk-free and soy-free versions available.

Milk and Soy Substitutions: Alternative dairy-free milk beverages and products will work in most recipes. Find out more about milk substitutions and soy substitutions.
