Description

For anyone who likes Buffalo wings, this is a great change of pace from normal pasta salad. Really popular as a side dish for a barbeque or just about any gathering you can think of. You can substitute or add many different vegetables with this recipe.

Ingredients
  • 1 (16 ounce) package uncooked rotini pasta
  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 cup chunky blue cheese dressing
  • ½ cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 pound frozen cooked chicken strips, defrosted and diced
  • ½ cup red bell pepper, diced
  • ½ cup green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 cup red onion, diced
Directions
  1. 1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the rotini, and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  2. 2. Stir together the mayonnaise, blue cheese dressing, buffalo wing sauce, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the chicken, bell peppers, red onion, and cooked pasta and toss to coat with the dressing. Cover and chill at least 1 hour in the refrigerator before serving.
