One-point-two-three billion — that’s apparently the number of chicken wings Americans will eat this Sunday while watching the Super Bowl. As football fans watch the San Francisco 49ers battle the Baltimore Ravens, they’ll collectively consume enough wings to stretch from California to Maryland when laid end-to-end, according to this year’s National Chicken Council poll.
With that said…maybe you’d like a different way to enjoy those wings. (and a less messy way too). My husband makes this amazing buffalo chicken dip every year, and it is always the biggest hit at the Super Bowl party. And it’s soooooo easy! Below is the recipe!
