What’s not to love about a big hearty salad? You’ll want an extra big bowl of our Buffalo Chicken Salad loaded with crumbled blue cheese, shredded carrots, thinly sliced red onions, strips of red peppers and drizzled with ranch dressing. It doesn’t get much better than this!

An easy but delicious Buffalo Chicken Salad starts with our recipe for Slow Cooker Buffalo Chicken. This is a great way to cook once, and eat several times.  I save myself a lot of time, and money, by planning out my meals  and prepping ahead of time.  You can download my free Menu Planner and Grocery List Printable Set right now. Some of my other favorite make ahead meals are Homemade Italian Meatballs with Homemade Tomato Sauce.  These recipes are all wonderful for feeding a crowd, and they freeze well so they’re fabulous freezer meals.
