⭐ 3–4 WW Points per serving (makes 6 servings)
(Most points come from cream cheese + cheese topping. Everything else is zero.)
This one hits like a cozy pub-style buffalo melt but without the heavy stuff. I made it on a cold evening, and the creamy buffalo smell honestly felt like walking into a warm kitchen after being out all day. Spicy, melty, and perfect on its own or with veggies.
