Buffalo Chicken Salad

Mar 3, 2021

This has quickly become our newest lunch addiction. We love hot and spicy foods and we put hot sauce on literally everything. Even Sterling and Frances Moon ask for it too- I guess they got that spicy side from me! This chicken salad is full of so much flavor and on the healthier side. The buffalo dressing is made with mostly Greek Yogurt- you could honestly even omit the little bit of mayo if you wanted and I think it would still be good. This is great alone but we like to pile it on lettuce top with a little red cabbage and blue cheese and eat as a lettuce wrap!

We have really become obsessed with most New Primal products but the Buffalo Sauce is our favorite we put it on everything. We love the medium heat. It can be found at Whole Foods, Earthfare and Harris Teeter if you want to try it. Enjoy!
