I LOVE buffalo chicken wings! I rarely eat them though, I understand that there really isn't much worse than that for a lean, healthy body (unless you eat a meal at the Cheesecake Factory)
What exactly do I like so much about it? The chicken and the hot sauce and blue cheese. So the other day I read this recipe from Jenny Grothe of Recipes for Gals in Figure and Bodybuilding (but anyone can use her recipes). I follow her on facebook, she always has interesting sounding recipes, some are winners, some are not.
She recently posted the following recipe for Buffalo Chicken Salad. I will give you her recipe, then explain how I altered it for my delicious lunch!
1 Tbsp of the dressing has the following:
35 calories
3.5 grams fat
145 mg sodium
.5 gram carbs
.5 gram protein
I also doubled the Franks Hot Sauce...I like it hot!
For a meal with additional carbs add 1/2 cup kidney beans, they will be great!
