Ingredients

2 large avocados, halved and pitted (approx. 200g each)
2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (approx. 280g)
¼ cup buffalo sauce (60ml)
¼ cup cream cheese, softened (60g)
¼ cup shredded cheddar cheese (30g)
2 tbsp ranch dressing (30ml)
2 tbsp chopped green onions (30g)
1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped (15g)
½ tsp garlic powder (2.5g)
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Begin by preparing the avocados. Slice the avocados in half lengthwise and remove the pits. Scoop out some of the flesh to create a larger cavity for the filling, and reserve the scooped-out avocado for another use.
In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the chicken is evenly coated with the sauce.
Add the softened cream cheese to the chicken mixture. Stir until the cream cheese is fully incorporated and the mixture is creamy.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ranch dressing, green onions, and cilantro. Mix until all ingredients are well combined.
Spoon the buffalo chicken mixture into the hollowed-out avocado halves, dividing it evenly among them.
Serve immediately, garnished with additional green onions or cilantro if desired. These can also be chilled for later serving.

Notes

For added texture, you can broil the stuffed avocados for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden. If buffalo sauce is too spicy, feel free to adjust the amount or mix with a bit of melted butter to tame the heat.
