Cooked Chicken: You can use any kind of cooked chicken. I prefer chicken breast, but you can even use store-bought rotisserie chicken to save even more time.
Dairy Free Cream Cheese: My favorite to use is Violife, but any kind will work
Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
Coconut Yogurt: Make sure it’s plain and not flavored. The coconut yogurt helps cut the heat from the hot sauce, so it’s not TOO spicy

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F
In a medium sized bowl use a hand mixer to combine the dairy free cream cheese, hot sauce, and coconut yogurt.
Next, add the chopped, cooked chicken to the buffalo mixture and use a rubber spatula to coat the chicken completely.
Use the same spatula to pour the healthier buffalo chicken dip into a small baking pan. (I used a 6 inch by 6 inch ceramic pan similar to this)
Bake the easy appetizer for 25-30 minutes, then pull it out of the oven, let it cool slightly, and enjoy!
