No one says you need to save the creamy, tangy flavors of buffalo wings only for chicken. Those same flavors can be used to transform a simple crisp salad, like we did here. Blending some avocado into the base of a ranch dressing adds extra nutrition and creamy texture.

Great salad that got lots of compliments. Everyone added their own hot pepper sauce and blue cheese which provided flexibility with different tastes. Will definitely make again.
