Buffalo Chikn Dip

October 9, 2011 By Heather Blackmon

.

Last night was the 40th Birthday celebration for one of our awesome friends – a great time was had by all and I stayed up way past my bedtime.

Knowing I like to munch, I brought a snack to share. What to bring? I’ve seen a lot of Buffalo Dip at parties over the past few years, so I thought that might be a good dip to make vegan-friendly and share with a crowd. The verdict? No one knew it was meat & dairy-free until I told them – mission accomplished!

I served the dip layered (that’s how I’ve had it at parties), but I would also like to try this combined. Other variations: shred or chop the chicken strips, instead of keeping them whole.

Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine Which is more YOUR thing - camping near an alpine lake or shredding on a local trail? ⬇️

In both cases, we need to protect the land we enjoy on our adventures. And Leave No Trace is one program that helps with that - especially those that have a high rate of degradation through a program called Hot Spots. 

I'm excited to be partnering with @leavenotrace and @onxbackcountry to celebrate and preserve all these beautiful outdoor places. And for all of June, $10 of every onX Backcountry membership is being donated towards Leave No Trace’s Hot Spot program. A great way to get access to my favorite backcountry app AND support LNT! 

I added a link in my bio if you're interested in learning more, so you can help #ExploreandRestore!

What scares me is probably different than what scares you.

I am admittedly a timid mountain biker - but getting better every day.

I'm afraid to face plant, but still working on crow pose in yoga.

Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga Am I the only one still (basically) living in yoga clothes?

For at least part of the day, it's just easier to put on yoga pants, sports bra, and a "zoom-appropriate" top. Or a button-up layered over my workout tank. It makes it SO much easier to squeeze in a workout when I have time.

Tell me I'm not the only one who's not going back to work clothes?!

But really, keep your gaze straight ahead to keep your neck safe in bridge (or Setu Bandha Sarvangasana). It's rare that a version of this pose isn't included during cooldown in my classes.

Do you love bridge as much as I do?
