I love anything buffalo chicken flavored and after making this recipe, I have found my new go-to appetizer! It tastes just like the dip, but this recipe is chip-free! The breadcrumbs create the crunch that the chips would add otherwise.

3 The Laughing Cow® Blue Cheese Flavored Wedges
4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (cooked and finely shredded )
