Buffalo Chicken Salad Recipe

Egg salad is one of my favorite easy meals but my kids don’t really enjoy it. They also don’t really enjoy plain chicken salad so I’ve had to get creative with it. Buffalo Chicken Salad is something James has come to love! If I make it, he’ll take it for lunch at least three days a week. It’s a simple meal and he can change it up each time he takes it.

There’s really no pretty way to photograph chicken salad. So this might not look appetizing, but it is!
