The Buffalo Chicken Dip Cob Loaf is a show-stopping party recipe that combines the moorish flavors of buffalo chicken and ranch dressing with the novelty and convenience of a cob loaf – without having to deal with bones or dirty chilli fingers!!
A decade ago I was sitting in bed on a Sunday morning thinking about my Thermomix, my two beautiful children and the 40kg I had gained throughout my pregnancies. Out of desperation to change the path I was on, I created the Skinnymixers Facebook group for a place where people who were also desperate for change could hang out share their love for healthy and delicious meals.
Little did I know that not only would I transform mine & my childrenโs health, but I would change our lives forever ๐ฅฐ
Today, we celebrate the remarkable 10-year journey of the communityโa vibrant and supportive community that has empowered so many of us to embrace a healthier lifestyle and to fall in love with cooking. I cannot think of a group of people I would rather spend my time with every day.
To celebrate our 10th Birthday I knew an absolute show stopper celebration recipe was needed. I thought long and hard about what sort of recipes I have loved creating over the years and what Iโve seen the community enjoy with their family and friends and truthfully the chubbymixer recipes are always very popular ๐
If you prefer to reduce the calories significantly you can also bake it in a baking dish and serve with veggie sticks on the side ๐
Thank you to every single one of you for being on this journey with me for the last decade, I canโt wait to see what the next 10 years will bring.
