Love hot sauce and chicken! Great combo. I will have to try this except I will substitute blue cheese with feta because feta isn't too ... strong. Lol0

Try this wing sauce: http://www.presidentschoice.ca/LCLOnline/products.jsp?type=details&catIds=106&productId=17862
Honestly - It's amazing! Practically no cals, and so versatile. We use it in fried rice to serve as a side dish with vegetables, mix it with fat-free ranch salad dressing for a buffalo style salad or to have as a sauce on wraps, basically anything you want to taste like buffalo wings. Freaking life saver!
Beware - the mild is spicy. The hot is WAY too hot.0 -
YUM!
I will be getting that presidents choice sauce too - thanks for the link!0 -
I will make this tonight! I was looking for something to throw together anyway! Thanks!0

I would just like to say that I made this the other night (with the blue cheese!) and it was AMAZING. So good! I shared it with some friends for dinner. And, now I made it again tonight! :-) Thanks for the recipe! It's a keeper.0

I've been making this salad twice a week for the past two years. LOVE IT! Except I mix 1 tbs. of blue cheese dressing with more wing sauce so and drizzle that over the greens. Cuts back the fat and just adds extra goodness!0
