Challenger's Statement:
I love Buffalo wings. This is a much less guilty version that you don't need to drag out the deep fryer to make! I can make safe Buffalo Wings, but I really missed the blue cheese dressing to dip them in. The bean mixture provides a ranch dressing like taste to offset the spiciness of the Buffalo Chicken meat. If you're in a rush, safe canned chicken meat makes this recipe REALLY quick and easy. Enjoy!
Substitutions
Great northern beans can successfully be used instead of the cannellini beans.
You can adjust the spiciness of this dip by adjusting the ratio of margarine to hot sauce. Keep a total of 4 Tbsp, but add more margarine and less hot sauce if you want it more mild. The recipe as written is a mild/medium heat level. Use 1 Tbsp hot sauce to 3 Tbsp margarine for a more mild flavor.
Make sure your non dairy milk alternative is UNFLAVORED, vanilla just will not work in this recipe!
Use dairy, egg, soy, corn, wheat and/or gluten free ingredients as needed. To avoid potato, do not use Dari Free as the milk alternative.
