Notes
*I recommend Kite Hill cream cheese. I've tried many other brands for this recipe and they do not do the trick.
The cream cheese and cheddar cheese will determine the thickness and affect the flavor, so don’t use a brand you hate! Some vegan cream cheeses and cheeses melt and get thin and oily, while others maintain their “shape” and keep the dip thick.
You’ll want to use a vegan chicken brand you like, and if you can find pieces that are not breaded that would be the best.
