  2. They were great, I really like the Caesar dressing which I'd never made a dressing from scratch before. Also the chicken had a nice little kick to it since it marinated in hot sauce. I'm adding it to my summer menu which I'm hoping to expand.

  3. I tried a take on those wraps tonight! They turned out well. I did the marinade pretty close to the recipe and the chicken was good. I didn't get much heat from that amount of hot sauce, so next time I'll probably kick it up a bit. I didn't have time to make the dressing, so I used ranch and added feta, alfalfa sprouts, and avocado. Next time I'll probably leave out the avocado because it didn't add much flavor but added almost too much richness.

    Good recommendation though! Glad you linked it.

  4. I should have had a disclaimer or explanation that my family is very wimpy when it comes to spicy food. You're right that it wasn't that much heat, but the little there was was detectable by my oldest and so she often told me in her everyone-knows-this voice that she does not like spicy food. She got it down just fine when she knew that dessert was on the line though, so it couldn't have been too bad ;) If you want links/recipes to any of the other ones, let me know.
