Hot wing salad

FOOTBALL SEASON is here!!! This is a giant YEA!!!! for many of us. However, if you do not have ravenous teenagers or college students in your home you may find yourself wondering on Monday morning: What on earth am I going to do with 15 left over hot wings?  My solution? Make salad.


 For this ingredients shot, I found myself looking in my fridge and thinking can this be possible? I actually had all of the veggies I need for a salad cut up. This rarely happens to me. I did not possess blue cheese, so feta is filling in.
 Fill your salad bowl about half full of lettuce. This is a Romaine/Spinach mix, but any kind will work.
 Then get out the left over hot wings, I used to mild and one hot, I think all hot may be a little too much heat.
 Then shred them up. (Although a knife is pictured, I wound up just using my fingers.)
 Then add your favorite salad toppings, toss and enjoy. This is also a good way to use up the carrots and celery that come with hot wings.
