Category: On-the-Go  |  Ready in 15 minutes  |  Serves 1 adult or 2 kids  |  Naturally gluten-free

What You Need

  • 2 Zavor & Co gluten-free arepas
  • 1.5 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 3 tbsp buffalo hot sauce
  • 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp crumbled blue cheese
  • 2 tbsp finely diced celery, well drained

How to Make It

  1. Toss the shredded chicken with the buffalo sauce.
  2. Fold in the mayonnaise, blue cheese and drained celery until it just holds together.
  3. Warm the arepas in the toaster on high, 2-3 cycles.
  4. Pile the chicken salad onto one arepa and top with the second.
  5. Wrap in paper; it's bound and drained so nothing drips.

About This Recipe

Buffalo chicken and blue cheese is Buffalo, New York's contribution to American snacking — hot sauce and tangy blue cheese were made for each other. Draining the celery keeps a packed sandwich from getting watery.
