I love buffalo chicken and it is typically deep fried, so I made my own salad last night super yummy!!

1 boneless skinless chicken breast cut into small pieces
liberal amounts of Franks hot sauce buffalo flavor

no oil in the pan just chicken and hot sauce until chicken is fully cooked and spicy to perfection

large bed of romaine lettuce
1/4 cup lowfat feta cheese

sprinkle feta onto romaine top with chicken (I found a calorie free ranch dressing that I use, not nearly as good as regular but a good substitute)
add fat free/calorie free dressing of choice and enjoy!

    mine was around 267 calories, I used 8oz of chicken, the hot sauce is calorie free and the low fat feta was around 60-70 calories and my salad dressing was calorie free as well, it was delicious!

    I make my own too. I sub half an avocado for cheese in mine. I also use plain yogurt with cholula hot sauce for the dressing and 1/4 cup of salsa.
