Ingredients & Substitutions
I really enjoy using store-bought vegan coconut cream vegan coconut cream cheese for this recipe since it makes it extra creamy, but if you’re feeling adventurous, try making your own with blended cashews! The buffalo sauce can vary in heat level, so start with a little and add more to taste if you like it spicier.
Tips & Notes
- •I like to keep some extra buffalo sauce on the side for drizzling on top before serving—it adds a nice touch!
- •If you want to make it a bit heartier, you can also mix in some cooked quinoa or lentils.
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes, I’ll add a splash of plant-based milk to make it creamier, or throw in some chopped celery for extra crunch.
- •If I’m feeling fancy, I’ll sprinkle some vegan feta on top right before serving for a tangy twist.
Storage & Freezing
This dip keeps well in the fridge for up to 4 days in an airtight container. I recommend reheating it in the oven for the best texture, but you can also enjoy it cold!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this dip ahead of time?
Absolutely! You can prepare the dip a day in advance and just pop it in the oven when you’re ready to serve. It actually tastes even better after the flavors have melded together.
