Ingredients:

For the chicken:

24 oz boneless skinless chicken breast

6 large lettuce leaves, Bibb or Iceberg
1 1/2 cups shredded carrots
2 large celery stalks, cut into 2 inch matchsticks

Directions:

In a crock pot, combine chicken, onions, celery stalk, garlic and broth (enough to cover your chicken, use water if the can of broth isn't enough). Cover and cook on high 4 hours.

To prepare lettuce cups, place 1/2 cup buffalo chicken in each leaf, top with 1/4 cup shredded carrots, celery and dressing of your choice. Wrap up and start eating!

    I love anything Buffalo Chicken but the sodium in Franks Sauce is CRAZY! I used it to make some last week and when I saw my food log printed out and the amount of sodium I almost died! :sad:

    Dressing of your choice.....what do you think would work with this? I'm not a huge dressing person, but I'm not sure it would actually need it. It would probably be good with a little fresh blue cheese, but it seems like the hot sauce would be enough as far as 'dressing' goes. Thoughts?

    Also, it may not be the most healthy way to go, but I feel like I'd probably put this in a wrap...a flat-out or something, as opposed to lettuce. I think it would fill me up more...make it more of a meal.

    I have this in the slow cooker right now for supper tonight :) I am very excited! I bought some buns for the non-diet people in the house to make sandwiches out of it.

    Oops. Thought this said, "crack pot" instead of crock pot. I was like, what the hell is crack pot buffalo chicken? Oh well, sounds good. May have to try it.
