Nothing Fancy tonight


Today started out dreary and chilly, then after an afternoon rain squall, turned somewhat sunny, hot and humid. Perfect salad weather, and since I'd had a busy day it also needed to be a quick and easy meal.

Buffalo chicken salad is the best of both of those worlds - lots of flavor with little effort. I purchased a jar of wing sauce and poured it into a zip-lock bag. Then I cut up a couple chicken breasts into "tenders" and tossed those in the bag with the sauce, and put it in the fridge for a couple of hours.

The salad fixings might be made up of different things from time to time, depending on what I have on hand. Today it was romaine lettuce, Roma tomato, a little bit of a banana pepper, carrot and celery. And a pinch of crumbled blue cheese. Top it off with the chicken after sauteeing it in a pan (no added oil) and some blue cheese dressing and voila! Easy meal!

Dessert was another piece of the blackberry frozen yogurt pie I made yesterday.
