Bleu Cheese Hot Wings

"Made these with leftover Uncle Ronnie's Bleu Cheese Dressing (recipe available on this site), and wow! You can use any bleu cheese dressing to make these, but the homemade dressing baked into a sort of soft, but firm, coating on the chicken- have never had that happen with store-bought salad dressing. Good flavor, and melt-in-your-mouth texture, even from cheap store-brand frozen wing sections (which are famous in our house for being tough, sinewy, and flavorless). Pair up with some celery sticks and even more bleu cheese for great party food, or as a tasty late-night snack. This recipe doubles or triples easily."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a former cook/chef, but have found that working in the service department of a tractor shop pays better! I'm relearning the joys of peanut butter and jelly, thanks to my kids, and getting back to basics (for some reason, pesto and other such delicacies just don't go over so well with the home crowd!) I collect vintage cookbooks, design jewelry, and do henna/mehndi art in my spare time, when I get any! ;)
