Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad
(2)
Recipe by Kendra

I invented this recipe when I decided I wanted to fix something like buffalo wings for dinner, but wanted something that would be better when the weather is hot outside. I think this worked out very well.

DIRECTIONS

  • Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again.
  • Chop chicken into bite-sized pieces. I sometimes use Southwest flavored chicken strips instead of grilled. Just depends on what I have on hand.
  • Combine pasta, chicken, celery, peppers, and onion. Other veggies can be added if you like. I've sometimes added peas, corn, or cucumbers.
  • Mix remaining ingredients until combined, and pour over pasta mixture.
  • You can use blue cheese dressing instead of ranch, or more or less hot sauce, depending on your personal preferences. Chill for at least 30 minutes, or until ready to serve.
