- 1 carrot cut into matchsticks
- additional toppings of choice: red onion, avocado, blue cheese, etc
Instructions
- In a Crockpot, combine chicken, onion, chopped celery stalk, garlic, and broth. Cover and cook on high for 4 hours.
- Remove chicken from Crockpot, reserve ½ cup broth and discard the rest.
- Shred the chicken with two forks, return to the Crockpot with ½ cup broth and the buffalo sauce. Cook on high for an additional 30 minutes.
- To prepare lettuce cups, place buffalo chicken in each leaf and top with veggie matchsticks. Add additional toppings of choice (red onion, avocado, blue cheese, etc.). Depending on size of lettuce leaves, you should get approximately 8 lettuce wraps (2 per serving).
