Shredded Buffalo Chicken – WLS Recipe

Who doesn’t need another easy chicken slow-cooker meal!?

If you like a little bit of heat, this is a great recipe to have in your arsenal. If you like a lot a bit of heat, add more hot sauce!

We melted a bit of reduced fat swiss chess on top and proceeded to pat ourselves on the back for a really great idea.

Okay, also…I put some fat-free plain Greek yogurt on the side of mine- tastes like sour cream and cooled down the heat to my personal level. Mr W, however, didn’t need any cooling down!
