Sharing is caring!

Lighter dairy ingredients are the key to this recipe’s healthier makeover. Serve it up hot with multi-grain crackers and crisp celery sticks.

Ingredients:

  • 2 (10 ounce) cans natural chunk chicken, drained
  • ¾ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot®)
  • 2 (8 ounce) packages Neufchatel cheese, softened
  • 1 cup light ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese, divided
  • 1 bunch celery, cleaned and cut into 4 inch pieces
  • 8 ounces multi-grain crackers

Directions:

Heat chicken and hot pepper sauce in a skillet over medium heat, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in Neufchatel cheese and ranch dressing. Cook and stir until well blended and warm, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in half of the shredded Cheddar cheese, then transfer mixture to a slow cooker.

Sprinkle remaining Cheddar cheese over top, cover, and cook on Low until hot and bubbly, about 30 minutes. Serve with celery sticks and crackers.
