Shredded Buffalo Chicken
I’m always keeping an eye out for new recipes to try and when I came across this one I knew Alex would love it. He adores spicy food and I don’t make things “spicy enough” very often because I don’t care much for it. These however, were WAY too spicy for me so Alex LOVED them!This recipe is an easy dinner solution that your family will love. Using your crock pot makes dinner super easy. Once you put the ingredients in the crock pot in the morning you don’t have to worry about it until dinner time again.This recipe is gluten free if you make your own Ranch seasoning mix. I’m working on perfecting the one I have and will post it in the future. However there are many different places you can get recipes to make it. The ranch mix give the chicken a fuller flavor. If you don’t use it you will only have the buffalo sauce and no other flavor. I highly suggest using it in this recipe.
