In a saucepan prepared with non-stick cooking spray, melt cream cheese, ranch, buffalo sauce and cheese. When melted, add in the chicken. Remove from heat and add the sour cream. Mix it all together well. Taste, and add more buffalo sauce as needed!

Zucchini Garlic Bites

Need to infuse some veggies into your football party? These zucchini bites are a favorite among our vegetarian friends. If you can’t find fresh herbs for this dish, feel free to use some dried ingredients.

Ingredients

1 cup grated, drained zucchini

1 egg

⅓ cup breadcrumbs

¼ cup Parmesan cheese, grated finely

1 clove of garlic, grated

2 tbsp chopped chives

1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley

1 tsp chopped fresh basil

1 tsp fresh oregano

Pinch of salt and pepper

Marinara for dipping sauce

Directions

Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F and coat a baking sheet with non-stick spray or olive oil. After grating the zucchini, use a tea towel or cheesecloth to drain all the water. You can use the small holes on your box grater to grate the garlic, as well. Then, in a medium bowl, mix all ingredients together. Shape balls using a tablespoon. Roll with your hand and place onto the baking sheet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes until the bites are golden brown. Serve warm with your favorite jar of prepared marinara sauce. Recipe should make 16 bites.
