Buffalo flavor is having a moment, and we’re here to celebrate it beyond wings. For the vegetarians in the stands, there’s Buffalo cauliflower, Buffalo cauliflower dip and Buffalo crudités. Creamy Buffalo chicken dip is another way to get your Buffalo-blue cheese fix. Serve it with chips and celery sticks, or do like recipe developer Ali Slagle suggests and pile it on top of a baked potato, tuck it into a hamburger roll or spoon it on top of cooked macaroni.
