Top Tips For Making
- We loved this dip with celery sticks, bell peppers, and carrots, but you can also eat it with chips or crostinis.
- This dip has a little bit of a kick, but it isn’t too spicy. If you’d like to kick up the heat factor a bit, you can add sliced jalapeños to the top after baking or sprinkle a little hot sauce on top.
- You can purchase pre-shredded chicken or a rotisserie chicken and shred it using the methods in The Best Shredded Chicken. If you have an Instant Pot or pressure cooker, check out this recipe for Instant Pot shredded chicken.

The Keto Buffalo Chicken Dip turned out great!
I am wondering if the dip can be frozen after it has been baked?
I ended up using two 5.5” crocks to bake the dip in and would like to save one for the future.
We haven’t tried to freeze it, but we’re sure it’d be fine! 🙂
