Light Buffalo Chicken Dip

This is one of the most favorite dips I have ever made! It is always a huge hit at parties and I can certainly never seem to stay out of it! I recently remade this recipe (Dec. 2011) and omitted the blue cheese and added an additional 4 oz. regular cheese and I think I […]
