Buffalo Chicken Bake

Experience the bold and savory flavors of our Buffalo Chicken Bake, a delightful twist on the classic comfort food. Begin with tender, shredded chicken breasts, either cooked fresh or conveniently sourced from a rotisserie. A creamy blend of smooth cottage cheese adds richness, while the buffalo sauce injects a zesty kick that can be adjusted to suit your spice preference.

Enhance the umami profile with coconut aminos or Worcestershire, and elevate the aromatic essence with garlic and onion powders, along with a touch of black pepper. Introduce a nutritious twist by incorporating cooked frozen riced cauliflower and rice, creating a satisfying and wholesome base.

For a cheesy finish, sprinkle shredded cheddar over the top, and feel free to customize with optional toppings such as green onions or blue cheese crumbles. If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding chopped carrots or celery for an extra layer of crunch and flavor. Transform your dinner routine with this Buffalo Chicken Bake – a delightful fusion of bold taste and nutritional goodness.
