Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken Sliders With Roasted Crookneck Squash
How’s that for an original title?
I am so tired I can’t even think of a somewhat catchy name for this post….
I pinned these {surprise!} and knew that I would serve them in slider form because let’s face it, everything is cuter on a small bun.
For the sliders I used about 1.5 pounds of chicken tenderloins {still frozen}, about 3/4 bottle {the small one} of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce and about half a packet of Hidden Valley Ranch mix. I cooked on low for about 6 hours ~ after 5 hours, I shredded the chicken with two forks, added 2 tbsp butter and kept it on low for another hour. Lightly toast up some little rolls and then load ’em up! These would make PERFECT Superbowl grub.
I added a little reduced fat bleu cheese topper {helllllooo, what is buffalo chicken without some bleu?} and served them with roasted yellow squash that I just cut into half moons, drizzed with a bit of olive oil, dusted with salt & pepper, tossed and roasted at 425* for about 15-20 minutes.
Dinner is done.
And so am I.
The Christmas cards are 90% done, our adopt-a-family gift is ready to go, my goodie ingredients have been purchased and I just need to get bakin’.
How’s your holiday agenda coming along?

Kim, I found the reduced fat bleu at Ralphs…it’s just the {cheap} store brand. I believe I have gotten the lower fat version at Vons/Safeway, too. You don’t even notice the difference since the taste is so sharp and DELICIOUS! Hope you love these as much as we did! XO
