Crowd Pleasing Vegginized Buffalo Dip!

This Roasted Coulliflower buffalo dip will be sure to win everybody over

But Don't just take me word for it, try if for yourself!

Buffalo dip has always been a favorite of mine, and one day I was challenged to make a vegetarian version of chicken buffalo dip and the outcome far surpassed any of our expectations! Check out the Recipe Below:

Ingredients:

1 Large Cauliflower

3 tblsp. Olive Oil

1/2 tsp. Salt

1/2 tsp. Pepper

2 tsp. seasoned salt

1 tblsp. Poultry Seasoning (I like Mrs. Dash Chicken Seasoning)

1 tsp. Smoked Paprika

1 Brick of Cream Cheese

1/2 cup Sour Cream

1/2 cup Franks Wings Sauce

1 Package of Hidden Valley Fiesta Ranch Seasoning

3/4 Cup Mozzarella Cheese

1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese (from the block)

Note: Sometimes finding Hidden Valley Fiesta Ranch is hard but trust me it's worth it, however if you can not find it you can use the original Ranch packet and add a tsp of red Chipotle Chili Pepper. Also I have come to find that grating cheese straight from the block works best as it is free from the flame retardant agents that store bought shredded cheeses have. If you are vegan sub 8 pulverized saltines, dill and Chipotle Chili Pepper for the hidden valley and your favorite vegan sour and cream and shredded cheeses.

Instruments:

Baking Sheet

Parchment Paper or silicon baking mat

Large Mixing Bowl

Wooden Spoon

Potato Masher or Fork (if you don't have a masher)

Covered Baking Dish (at least 9in in diameter)

Non-Stick Agent

Oven

Aluminum Foil if you do not have a covered dish

Recipe:

• Pre-Heat your oven to 425 degrees F.

• With Sharp kitchen Knife Cut Cauliflower into small florets

• (this can be achieved fairly easily by removing the core of the Cauliflower first and then slight rotating your knife left and right at the base of the florets)

• Place florets into a Large Mixing Bowl and place Olive Oil, poultry seasoning and seasoned salt and toss to combine

• Place Cauliflower in a single layer on lined baking sheet and place in oven

• Roast Cauliflower until fork tender (approx 25-30 mins)

• Take Cauliflower out of the oven and set aside, and let cool

• In medium mixing bowl combine remainder of spices, cream cheese, sour cream, Mozzarella cheese and hidden valley and mix until well incorporated.

• Place Cauliflower in a Large mixing bowl and Mash with Potato Masher/Fork

(Cauliflower should resemble the appearance of canned meat with little to no large Cauliflower bits remaining)

• Combine Set Aside Hidden Valley mixture to Cauliflower, mix well then transfer to a greased baking dish.

• Grate Cheddar Cheese and Sprinkle on top

• Cover Dish and Bake for 20-25 mins removing lid or foil half way through til cheese is golden and dip is bubbling at the sides.

• ( if using dairy free cheeses for the vegan cheese slightly stir half way through)

• Let Cool for 5 minutes or so then Enjoy with your favorite chips, veggie sticks, whatever your little heart desires!
