Whole 30 Buffalo Fried Chicken Wings

November 1, 2017 Comments Off on Whole 30 Buffalo Fried Chicken Wings

Football season is the best, but let’s be honest, it’s not because I love sitting on the couch for 8 hours a day watching games.  I’m 100% in it for the eats.  I can become a fan of just about anything if there are copious amounts of finger foods involved. And even though my alma mater waited until this year to show some talent (go Cyclones!) their tailgating scene has been a success for decades.  Today’s post is to remind you that even though you may be on a Paleo/Whole30 schedule, it doesn’t mean you can’t partake in the fun!

In living with my boyfriend Will, I know that football Sundays are sacred. It’s become a mutual understanding that he can cozy up on the couch while I spend my time in the kitchen (my sacred space) to fix us up some football food to enjoy together. These Buffalo Fried Chicken wings are one of our favorites; not much of a surprise, though, as just about anything with ‘buffalo’ & ‘fried’ in the title is likely to be tasty. A perfect, classic standby to enjoy during any big game. Will’s beloved Broncos may be a miss this season, but a plate of tasty buffalo wings is always a hit!

For all my Whole30-ers out there: this Sunday grab yourself a Lacroix Mocktail, whip up some Buffalo Fried Chicken Wings, and you’ll be enjoying football gamedays faster than you can yell “Go Sports!”
