Other variations
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I make this using variations to flavor the chicken. We have a chicken wing place here that sells their sauces so I purchase... the sauces and I will use on of their sauces to replace the hot sauce. This a a keeper.Read more

Was Okay, but my Chicken didn't taste right
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

After reviewing other posts on the message board for this recipe, I decided I must of did something wrong, as my chicken did... not taste quite right. I think I was suppose to use breaded chicken maybe. I did however, like the dressing. But it also could be, that I just started cooking and don't know what I am doing. Hopefully, I'll have better luck next time.:)Read more

Very Tasty
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This is not your ordinary salad. What a great way to experience the taste of buffalo chicken without the mess and excess... calories. It really is very easy to prepare. Unfortunately, my kitchen is much messier after the preparation than Rachel's. :)Read more

Very Yumo!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was very good. I Put all veggies in a big bowl and than made individual servings and toss the dressing in the individual... survings. That way the rest of the salad would be fresh for the next day. So very good! Thanks for the recipie.Read more

Fresh and Crispy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

So simple but really great - especially if you use crisp, fresh lettuce. I mised iceberg with romaine for a wonderful... texture. This one's a winner.Read more
