Buffalo Chicken Ring

Football season is upon us and so are all those amazing Fall football recipes. Here is a great take on chicken wings and chicken wing dip. It came out yummy and really satisfied my chicken wing craving at a portion of the calories. If you cut the ring into 12 pieces, which are a good size, then each piece is about 213 calories. Enjoy with Ranch or Bleu Cheese but make sure you add in those calories if you are tracking. Enjoy and let me know how yours comes out!

Ingredients:
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 packet ranch dressing mix
1/2 cup celery, finely diced
1/2 cup onions, finely diced
1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot
2 (6 ounce) packets cooked chicken, very finely diced
2 tubes crescent rolls
1/2 cup ranch dressing (for dipping), optional

Directions:
 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, ranch dressing mix, celery, onions, Buffalo sauce, and chicken. (Or, if you'd rather, mix it all together in a food processor.

2. Open the tubes of crescent rolls and separate each roll into four rectangles. Lay the rectangles on a parchment lined or nonstick baking sheet to form a large circle.

3. Spoon chicken mixture into the center of the crescent dough ring. Fold the top of each crescent dough rectangle over the chicken filling, pressing into place to secure the dough all the way around the filling.


4. Bake in preheated oven at 375 degrees for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
