Buffalo Chicken Soup

If you like tangy and spicy Buffalo Wings, you will love this soup. I found the original recipe on the weight watcher message boards. It called for cooked chicken. I always cook the chicken just before making the soup. Today I added the Orleans Pepper Seasoning when I browned the chicken. It was delicious. If you are not a spice lover cut back on the Frank's buffalo wing sauce. You may want to start with 1/4 cup. I love it spicy. I find that spicy foods really satisfy. This soup is spicy, creamy and even crunchy from the celery. And the blue cheese is just the right finishing touch. I hope you enjoy it. Try the Orleans Pepper when you grill. It is great on all types of meats.
