A go to salad in my house is a Buffalo Chicken Salad. I don't make mine like a typical salad. Actually a lot of times buffalo chicken salads can be a tad boring. So I add my own person touch to them with a bit more variety. Here is my simple yet very tasty recipe for Buffalo Chicken Salad.
Buffalo Chicken Salad
Pickled Beets
Hearts of Palm
Kidney Beans
Green Onions
Orange Bell Peppers
Tomatoes
Mixed baby greens
Romaine lettuce
Previously cooked chicken, diced and cooked in Franks Hot Sauce
Crumbled Gorgonzola Cheese
Yogurt Blue Cheese Dressing
Diced hearts of palm, pickled beets, tomatoes, kidney beans, green onions and orange bell peppers
Thinly sliced (because I like small bites) mixed baby greens
Throw in diced veggies
Add some sliced romaine
Top with your precooked chicken, some crumbled Gorgonzola and yogurt blue cheese dressing
Toss is all together and enjoy!
By precooking the chicken you save some time so you can just dice up what you need and throw it all together. Right after I go shopping I typically take about three to four chicken breasts and cook them up specifically for salads for that week. It helps cut back on prep time which is always a help with three kids.
