{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad

 

Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad

This is a good salad. I replaced the bleu cheese with feta and
cut the recipe in half. Easy to make and good flavor.

Author Note: Full of buffalo flavors, this is one of my favorite side dishes
at potlucks and tailgate parties, but you could also serve it as a main. It
can be eaten warm or cold so it's easy to make ahead of time. Sometimes I
even use precooked small shrimp instead of the chicken or leave out the meat
if I need a vegetarian dish.
