BUFFALO CHICKEN TACO SALAD

Your plate called. It wants you to make this Buffalo Chicken Taco Salad, stat!

Your plate called. It wants you to make this Buffalo Chicken Taco Salad, stat! This is totally my new favorite way to use up leftover chicken!

Guys, I think I found an express pass to my husband’s heart.

It’s buffalo chicken anything. Pizza, won-ton cups, spaghetti squash, wings, dips, stuffed peppers, bananas… anything! Ok fine, I made that last one up. But seriously, this man LIGHTS UP when I break out the Frank’s Red Hot.

Pun intended.

Today I get to add another buffalo chicken dish to our arsenal that won’t result in a purchase of new stretchy pants for yours truly. It also won’t result in me doing any actual cooking since I can snag leftover chicken breast from the fridge and have this bad boy on the table in a matter of minutes.

Buffalo Chicken Taco Salad: it’s a game changer, folks!

I feel like us food bloggers say that way too often… but in what world would a tasty buffalo chicken taco salad not jazz up your salad routine? If you’re vegetarian? Vegan even? Buffalo Chickpea Taco Salad. BAM! Game changed.

Fine, I’ll go sit in the corner… but I still really want to buffalo my chickpeas.

Not to be confused with my chickpea.

I’ll behave one of these days. Until then, let’s show Taco Tuesday what we’re all about with this buffalo chicken taco salad recipe!
