These Buffalo Chicken Bowls are one of my favorite quick meals when I want something packed with flavor but still wholesome. They are super easy to put together and perfect for busy weeknights because you can customize the toppings to whatever you have in your fridge.

I love the balance between the spicy buffalo sauce and the cool, creamy dressing on top. A quick tip is to shred your chicken while it is still warm so it absorbs all that tangy sauce before you assemble your bowls.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce
  • 2 cups cooked quinoa or brown rice
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 1/2 cup pickled red onions
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese or feta
  • 1/4 cup ranch or blue cheese dressing
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. 1

    Place the shredded chicken in a medium bowl and toss it with the buffalo sauce until every piece is well coated.

  2. 2

    Divide the cooked quinoa or rice into four separate serving bowls.

  3. 3

    Top each bowl with an even portion of the saucy chicken.

  4. 4

    Add a handful of shredded carrots, chopped celery, and a spoonful of pickled onions to each bowl.

  5. 5

    Sprinkle with the crumbled cheese and drizzle with your favorite ranch or blue cheese dressing.

  6. 6

    Garnish with a little fresh parsley before serving.

💡 Tips

Store the components in separate airtight containers in the fridge to keep everything fresh for up to three days. These bowls are great for meal prep, just be sure to add the dressing right before you eat.
