pinterest project {buffalo chicken roll-ups}

Have you noticed that food tends to go through trends? Yep, similar to clothing trends. I noticed it for the first time with avocado this year. Tons of recipes I found on Pinterest called for avocado, and then I even heard an advertisement on the radio telling people to use avocados for dinner. Then I noticed it with the pistachio commercials on TV. I mean, if Khole and Lamar do it...


Anyway. Another "food trend", which I have decided is definitely a real thing, is anything containing buffalo chicken. Buffalo chicken dip, salad, wraps, grilled cheese, tacos, seriously, anything with buffalo sauce and shredded chicken and there is a recipe out there for it!

I pinned these bad boys awhile back:

via What's Cookin' Chicago?

And man do they look delicious! The main problem I found with this recipe was that it called for you to make the dough on your own. I barely have time to think about dinner, let alone let dough rise for 2 hours. Maybe someday.






Therefore, I just invented my own recipe. We ate them as a meal with salad, but I think they'd be great as an appetizer, too.

What you'll need:
Shredded chicken, 1 cup or so (cooked my new favorite way, a post on that coming soon!)
1/4 cup or so of Buffalo Wing sauce (we use Frank's)
1/2 cup of bleu cheese crumbles
2 cans of crescent rolls
Optional: ranch or bleu cheese dressing for dipping.
You take one of your crescent rolls...
Add your chicken and bleu cheese (or whatever kind of cheese you prefer)...
Then roll it up!


Someday our kitchen will have better lighting and my pictures won't be totally blurry and dark. Someday.

Seriously, these are SO easy and so delicious!


We dipped ours in ranch and it was amazing! I highly recommend trying these either for an appetizer or as a meal.
