BUFFALO CHICKEN SALAD
This salad takes the main components of Buffalo Chicken Wings--chicken, hot sauce, blue cheese and celery--and tosses them together in a refreshing salad that is significantly lower in fat and calories than the dish that inspired it. If you like spicy food, add more hot sauce; this is a mild version. Recipe courtesy of Hallmark Magazine.

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the oil and 1 tablespoon of the hot pepper sauce. Add the chicken and toss. Transfer the chicken to a broiler pan and sprinkle on both sides with the paprika and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Broil 6 inches from the heat, turning once, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until cooked through. Place on a plate to cool slightly. When cool enough to handle, cut into bite-size pieces.
- Meanwhile, prepare the celery, carrots and scallions, and put them in a large salad bowl, tossing well to combine.
- In a blender or mini food processor, combine the blue cheese, milk, yogurt, vinegar, remaining 2 teaspoons oil, remaining 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt. (If there are any juices on the chicken plate, add them in.) Process until smooth.
- Add the dressing, chicken and lettuce to the salad bowl, tossing gently to combine. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
