Fix it and Forget it Friday: Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wrap

This week's recipe comes from Skinny Taste. It is YUMMY and good for you!

"All the flavors you love from buffalo wings without all the added fat.

Making shredded buffalo chicken in the slow cooker is super easy, anyone can do this and you can use the chicken for everything from wraps and salads, to pizza toppings, sandwiches and more! A great low-carb, gf way I like to eat this is in a lettuce wrap topped with shredded carrots, celery and blue cheese dressing"
