Zero point, healthy and delicious Buffalo chicken celery sticks
Ingredients:
- Chicken breast: 1 pound, cooked and shredded (use rotisserie chicken or cook it yourself)
- Buffalo sauce: 1/4 cup (look for a low-calorie, no-sugar-added version)

- Celery sticks: 6-8 large
- Salt and pepper: To taste
- Chopped green onions: Optional, for garnish

Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: If not already cooked, poach or bake the chicken breast until fully cooked. Let it cool, then shred it using two forks or your hands.
- Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the Buffalo sauce. Stir until the chicken is evenly coated. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Prepare the Celery: Wash and cut the celery sticks into 3-4 inch pieces.
- Prepare the Dip: In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt with a little salt and pepper. You can also add some garlic powder or onion powder if desired.
- Assemble: Fill each celery stick with a spoonful of the Buffalo chicken mixture.
- Garnish (optional): Sprinkle chopped green onions and crumbled blue cheese on top if you like.
- Serve: Enjoy immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
