Buffalo Hot-Wing Cheese Dip

There are dishes that you associate to events and this one ALWAYS makes me think of Football season and fall weather.

We make this dip whenever we host a football party or go to a football party. 

It has never failed to wow us and our guests or hosts. You should print up a couple recipe cards to go with this so that you can give them out, because people will usually ask for the recipe.

I’m convinced you could dip a shoe in it and it would taste good – but typically, we just use celery and baby carrots. And tortilla chips or corn chips.

I’ve seen altered versions of this that add Blue Cheese as well. You can do that, I’m not usually a big fan of Blue Cheese but it would probably taste good if you like that.

Warning: This version is on the spicy side. You can adjust it to your taste if you can’t handle the heat.
