Healthish Buffalo Chicken Dip

Healthish Buffalo Chicken Dip

By Marissa Nichols Giron

This is my version of buffalo chicken dip that is a mix of the full fat Frank’s Red Hot Sauce version and Hungry Girl’s skinny version. It is an appetizer of party dip and goes well with tortilla chips or as a veggie dip.

Ingredients:

10 ounce can white chicken
4 ounces (half a brick) of non-fat cream cheese or nuefchatal cheese
¼ cup Frank’s red hot sauce (original version) not the buttery tasting wing sauce
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/8 cup ranch dressing
1/8 cup fat free, plain greek yogurt

Instructions:

Leave the cream cheese out of the fridge for a few minutes until it softens. Mix all ingredients together and pour into baking dish. Bake at 325 degrees for 20 minutes or until the mixture starts to bubble a bit.

Easy and Delicious Guacamole

Easy and Delicious Guacamole

by Aubrey Culverwell


avocados
about ¼ tsp. salt per avocado
about 2 Tbsp. salsa per avocado
about 3/4 tsp. garlic powder per avocado
about ½ tsp. lemon or lime juice per avocado
chopped cilantro (optional)
chopped onion (optional)

Halve avocados and gently squeeze out pits. Scoop avocado fruit into bowl. Add salt, juice, salsa and garlic powder. Mash with a fork, leaving some chunks, if desired. Taste. If you can't taste the avocado much, add more salt. If it's a little flat, dribble in more juice. If it's not spicy enough, add more salsa. Play with it. Stir in cilantro and/or onion at the end if desired.

Southwestern Eggrolls

Southwestern Eggrolls
(this sounds like an appetizer but it's actually a main entree 'cause they're burrito-sized)

By Aubrey Culverwell

Eggrolls:
5-7 burrito-sized tortillas
approx. 1 large chicken breast
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
1 red bell pepper, minced
2 or 3 green onions, minced
1 can corn, drained
1 can black beans, rinsed
2 Tbsp.frozen spinach, thawed and drained
1 small can diced green chilies
2 Tbsp.minced fresh parsley, or dried parsley
½ tsp. cumin
½ tsp. chili powder
¼ tsp. salt
dash of cayenne pepper
3/4 C monterey jack cheese (or cheddar, or...)

Cook chicken in oil and set aside. SauteĆ© pepper and onions in oil until tender. Dice chicken and add to pan. Add corn, beans, spinach, green chilies, parsley, cumin, chili powder, salt and cayenne pepper. Cook for another 4 minutes. Stir well. Remove from heat and add cheese, stirring until cheese is melted. Wrap tortillas in a moist cloth and microwave for 1½ minutes. Spoon chicken mixture into the center of the tortilla. Roll tightly. Freeze for 4 hours or overnight. Now you can deep fry the eggrolls. Another option is to brown both sides in a little oil and then bake them. For an even healthier and still-tasty option, spray each roll with cooking oil and then bake. Bake for about 20 minutes in a 375-degree oven.


Sauce:

¼ C mashed avocado (about half an avocado)
¼ C mayonnaise
¼ C sour cream
1 Tbsp. buttermilk, or regular milk with a little lemon juice
1½ tsp. white vinegar
1/8 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. dried parsley
1/8 tsp. onion powder
dash of dill weed
dash of garlic powder
dash of black pepper
diced tomato (optional)
chopped green onion (optional)

Mix all ingredients except tomato and green onion. If desired, garnish with tomato and green onion.
