Ingredients

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1/2 cup Buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)

1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt

1/4 cup ranch dressing

2 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, romaine)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/2 cup celery, diced

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish

Tortilla chips or pita chips for serving (optional)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the Buffalo sauce. Toss until the chicken is well-coated. Adjust the sauce based on your spice preference.

In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt and ranch dressing until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and pepper for seasoning.

In a large salad bowl, layer the mixed greens, cherry tomatoes, celery, and red onion.

Top the salad with the Buffalo chicken mixture, ensuring an even distribution.

Drizzle the yogurt-ranch dressing over the salad. Gently toss to combine all ingredients without breaking the chicken.

If desired, sprinkle crumbled blue cheese on top and garnish with fresh herbs.

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or pita chips on the side for added crunch.
