I just love your blog. I am dieting South Beach method and this recipe fits the bill for Phase Two. I know what Chicken Sausage is but what is "Buffalo" Chicken Sausage? Is there a brand you could suggest? Fran from Texas
ReplyDeleteFran - Buffalo chicken sausage is just a spicy version of them - we used the Al Fresco brand that we got from Costco.
ReplyDeleteCheryl - That's good to know! I'll have to remember that next New Years!
