This is Obsessed: my weekly column devoted to sharing all the things I’m loving right now—from unique food and gift ideas to travel destinations and beauty products—plus some tips and tricks for living your best life.
I live in Alabama, where fall is synonymous with two things: football and food. Whether my family is watching the game at home or heading to tailgate at the stadium, snacks are non-negotiable. And while game day food is delicious, it can also be pretty unhealthy (looking at you, hot dogs, chips and sugary cocktails). So over the years, I’ve tried to find healthier alternatives to my favorite game day treats. While some healthy recipes have been lacking in the taste department, this Weight Watchers’ 0-point Buffalo chicken dip has become a mainstay at our tailgate (and my picky husband doesn’t even know that it’s a healthier version of his favorite creamy dip).
This TikTok video from allie.carte.dishes demonstrates the basics of the hot wing dip. She combines the white meat from a rotisserie chicken (without the skin), 1 cup of nonfat Greek yogurt, 2 tablespoons of ranch seasoning (like this one from Hidden Valley, $8 for 8 ounces at Target) and ⅛ cup of hot wing sauce (like this one from Frank’s Red Hot at Target, $3). These foods are all “free” or “zero points” on WW+, the updated version of Weight Watchers’, blue or purple plans. If you’re trying to cut back on sodium, feel free to scale back a bit on the wing sauce or the ranch powder, or opt for cooked and shredded chicken breasts instead of rotisserie meat.

You can serve this tasty dip with crackers, tortilla chips, pita chips or sturdy veggies (I personally love carrots, celery and mini bell peppers for this dip). No matter how you dish it up, I can promise you this: no one will believe this creamy and flavorful snack is healthy!
