Cheesy Chicken Dip

The next time you go to a friend’s house, offer to bring an appetizer and make this Cheesy Chicken Dip! Warm dips are always a crowd pleaser, and this one is no exception. I love serving sliced sweet baby bell peppers for dipping, or – even though they aren’t technically real food approved – tortilla chips would be a fabulous dipper as well. Let me know how it goes in the comments!

Sponsor Shoutout: Valley Fresh

For this recipe, I used a clean, organic canned chicken by Valley Fresh because sometimes I just don’t have homemade on hand. Making everything from scratch is a wonderful goal, but sometimes life simply gets in the way, and the convenience of already cooked chicken can make all the difference. And when it’s certified USDA organic with simple ingredients (sans antibiotics or anything artificial), there’s nothing to feel guilty about whatsoever! Oh, and I didn’t mention that the can is BPA-free, too – so no worries on that one!
