I love buffalo chicken because is easy to prepare in large batches and you can use it in a wide variety of recipes. Make buffalo chicken dip, a classic Midwest party snack, or use buffalo chicken to make an entree like enchiladas or pizza. If you want to keep things healthy, you can add buffalo chicken to a salad.

The easiest way to make buffalo chicken is to use a crock pot. This crock pot buffalo chicken recipe is a no-fuss way to make shredded chicken slathered in spicy buffalo sauce. The total active preparation time is just minutes. Once you have prepared the buffalo chicken, you can use it to make any of these recipes.

A collection of appetizer and entree recipes made with buffalo chicken. You can make shredded buffalo chicken in a slow cooker or by shredding up a rotisserie chicken and adding buffalo sauce. Then you can use that spicy buffalo chicken as the basis for any of these meals.

Buffalo Chicken Calzone

This delicious calzone can be served as a meal or a snack. The broccoli adds a fresh flavor and helps the calzone qualify as a meal since it includes a veggie.

A Buffalo Chicken Grits Bowl is made with creamy cheesy grits, crispy bacon, sauteed spinach, fresh corn, and spicy shredded buffalo chicken. It's a comfort food meal that you can make in just 30 minutes.

Buffalo Chicken Grits Bowl

Top cheesy grits with buffalo chicken, spinach, corn, and bacon and you have a delicious meal that lends itself to meal prepping.

A copycat recipe for Joe's on Weed Buffalo Chicken Dip

Buffalo Chicken Dip inspired by Joe's on Weed St

This creamy cheese buffalo chicken dip is addictive. Shredded chicken is drowned in a cheesy sauce seasoned with buffalo sauce. Make this as spicy as you want! If you know the bar Joe’s on Weed Street – this dip is a copycat of their recipe.

Buffalo Chicken Dip | Classic buffalo chicken dip served in an edible bread bowl.

Buffalo Chicken Dip

This is the classic buffalo chicken dip made with ranch seasoning, cream cheese, and shredded cheese, but I like to serve it in a bread bowl topped with bacon.

Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas

Buffalo Chicken Enchiladas

These enchiladas get filled with buffalo chicken and smothered with my poblano cream sauce.

Image for Buffalo Chicken Eggrolls

Buffalo Chicken Eggrolls

Soak chicken in buffalo sauce, add a little cream cheese, ranch dressing, and Mexican cheese, and roll it up in an eggroll wrapper and you have a tasty little snack. I like to dip these eggrolls in ranch dressing, because the buffalo sauce and ranch dressing combo makes my tastebuds do a happy dance.

Buffalo Chicken Totchos (Tater Tot Nachos)

I hope we can agree that tater tots taste better than tortilla chips. Crispy tater tots covered with buffalo sauce-soaked chicken, blue cheese crumbles, tomatoes, avocado, and sour cream is an indulgent snack.

Image for Buffalo Chicken Macaroni and Cheese

Buffalo Chicken Macaroni and Cheese

This combines two of my favorite foods. Buffalo Chicken Mac and Cheese is creamy, cheesy, spicy, and loaded with chicken. It can also be made in under 30 minutes!

Image for Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Buffalo Chicken Pizza

Skip the marinara sauce and top a pizza with buffalo soaked chicken, tomatoes, avocado, spinach, blue cheese, and mozzarella. I like to serve it with a side of ranch.

Buffalo Chicken Loaded Baked Potato Recipe

Buffalo Chicken Loaded Baked Potatoes

A baked potato filled with buffalo chicken, broccoli, and cheese can be a game day snack or a casual meal.

Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad

Buffalo Chicken Quinoa Salad

This is the healthiest recipe on the list, and it is one of my favorite lunch recipes. I love this recipe because you can prep the quinoa and chicken for the week and then quickly throw together lunch during the week. Plus, you can mix things up by adding different veggies.

Image for Buffalo Chicken French Fries

Buffalo Chicken French Fries

I came up with the idea of serving French Fries with a variety of topping during football season, and I loved the combination of chicken, buffalo sauce, and blue cheese over fries.

Buffalo BBQ Chicken Pizza

Buffalo BBQ Chicken Pizza

This pizza is made with a mix of buffalo sauce and barbecue sauce, and it is topped with chicken, mushrooms, spinach, caramelized onions, and mozzarella. Use rotisserie chicken and a store bought pizza crust and you can make this meal in under 30 minutes.
