so good! used frank's red hot sauce buffalo flavor and used maries greek yogurt ranch dressing instead bc it was way lower in calories than reg ranch and poured some extra buffalo sauce over the salad! so simple and what a hit if you love buffalo wings! healthy spin on it!

I love anything buffalo so maybe i'm biased but I thought this was a great recipe. the creaminess of the ranch, the sharpness of the blue cheese and the spicy buffalo kick created an excellent flavor combination. I think breaded chicken bites would be great in this recipe as well.

I loved this recipe! It was so easy to make I didn't use any cheese because I wanted to go a little healthier I used some low sodium chicken broth and franks original hot sauce and a 1/2 cup of each and then threw it on the grill for about 15 mins it tasted wonderful!!
