CSA Summer Challange: Buffalo Chicken Salad
My husband gets all the credit for this quick dinner.
But first, here's our haul from the CSA this week:
Lettuce
Swiss Chard
More Lettuce
Onions
1 garlic bulb
Red cabbage
green beans
Kale
Beets/Raddishes (no, I still don't know what they are. I just pass them along to the others I share the CSA with each week)
And out of all that, I literally only know what do do with the lettuce and green beans. Sure, the onions and garlic too, but red cabbage? And when will the raddish/beet invasion end? They're the vegetable that won't end... like zucchini!
But on to the dinner... this one is all my husband's brainchild. And it used up all of our lettuce, yeah!
INGREDIENTS
Breaded boneless chicken fingers
Chicken wing sauce (Red Hot, store brand, anything will work here)
Lettuce
Ranch dressing (have I told you how in love I am with Wegman's Yogurt ranch? It's only 60 calories!)
DIRECTIONS
Cook the chicken according to directions. With kids we always have a bag of chicken fingers in the house, these were Tyson and they worked great. When they're cooked through, throw them into a big bowl and coat with sauce.
Put on top of salad. Add-ins like cucumbers, tomatoes, shredded cheese and bell peppers are all great too!
VERDICT
Delicious. The man's a genius.
