Happy Monday, meal preppers! These Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps make for an easy summer lunchbox meal that won’t force you to turn on your oven. You can easily adjust the spice level by adding or withholding extra hot sauce after shredding the chicken. But don’t forget to pack up some guacamole or ranch dressing to help cool things down and bring all the ingredients together!

Ingredients

Buffalo Chicken

  • 1.25 lb chicken breast, raw
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped, (80 grams)
  • 1/4 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce, (2 oz)
  • 1/4 cup Stubb’s Sweet Heat BBQ Sauce, (2 oz)
  • 2 tbsp Flavor God Ranch Seasoning

Wraps

  • 10-12 lettuce leaves (I used butter lettuce), (50 grams)

  • 3 stalks celery, julienned, (120 grams)
