Buffalo chicken dip in a bowl

Hosting an event and need an easy, crowd-pleasing appetizer that won’t leave you or your guests feeling sluggish? Try this dairy- and gluten-free Buffalo Chicken Dip recipe with Paleo Tortilla Chips for the perfect protein-filled dipping combo.  

This hassle-free recipe is perfect when you’re making multiple dishes for an event. Just toss the ingredients into a crockpot, and about halfway through, shred the chicken. All that time saved means you can still prep for your party and whip up other small bites without needing to constantly monitor this dip. 

We use coconut cream and Paleo sour cream instead of heavy cream or milk in our Buffalo Chicken Dip, keeping it dairy-free and Paleo-friendly. The coconut cream also gives it a thick, creamy texture and a unique flavor, so you won’t even miss the cheese—or the digestive discomfort that often comes with dairy. 

TIPS: 

  • When shopping for a no-salt-added or low-sodium hot sauce, keep the Paleo guidelines in mind when wondering how low to go. 
  • Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) omissions and substitutions are listed in the recipe ingredients.
