Skinny Buffalo Chicken and Blue Cheese Dressing

     Skinnytaste.com is a great website for healthy recipes.  I have made several dishes and all have been great.  This weekend I attempted this shredded buffalo chicken in the crock pot with homemade blue cheese dressing.  The shredded chicken could be made into lettuce wraps, as suggested on Skinnytaste.  I plan to use it in salad this week for lunch.  In addition to being delicious and versatile, this recipe was easy-my number one criteria these days.
