Did you miss me? It seems like it's been ages since I've been here in my little space of the blogosphere. I celebrated my 40th birthday and I literally hit the ground running and never stopped. It was an entire week of celebration and I am as excited to be 40 as I was to be 20. After all 40 is the new 20 isn't it? The party hasn't stopped but I wanted to stop in and share a quick appetizer that is not only easy to make but is absolutely delicious. Our Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups is a great hit at parties and because it's gluten free can be served to those who can't eat gluten. You know who those friends are! Who said that gluten free can't be delicious too? Enjoy our Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups!

Buffalo Chicken Roll-Ups
(makes 8)
Ingredients
8 slices good quality chicken lunchmeat
1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles
1/4 cup buffalo sauce
4 thin carrot slices + extra for serving
4 thin celery slices + extra for serving
1 green onion, finely sliced

Instructions
Lay one piece of chicken on a piece of parchment paper.

Sprinkle one tablespoon of blue cheese at the end closest to you.
Place a celery or carrot stick on top of the blue cheese.

Fold the chicken over the blue cheese and carrot/celery, and tightly roll it until you reach the opposite end.

Place the roll seam-side down on your serving platter. If desired, you can place a toothpick in the center to ensure it doesn't unroll.

Repeat the process until you've used all of the chicken slices.
Once you've made all of your rolls, lightly drizzle the buffalo sauce over-the-top.

If desired, you can sprinkle some green onions on top for color and flavor.
Serve the extra buffalo sauce on the side along with extra carrot and celery slices.
Notes:
If you love buffalo chicken, you're going to love this recipe. Chicken lunchmeat, blue cheese, and a light drizzle of buffalo sauce have all the classic flavors of buffalo chicken in a quick and healthy snack!
Serve these as a light lunch or snack, or make a larger batch to serve at a party. This recipe can be easily double or tripled!
We kept these gluten-free, but you could serve mini sub rolls on the side, so your guests can make little sandwiches.
When purchasing your lunch meat, we highly recommend using a good quality, all natural variety. Since all lunchmeat can vary in size, you'll also want to be sure you're getting larger slices. Smaller slices will be more difficult to roll.
The carrot and celery sticks are optional, but we like the added texture it gives!

Oh my, these look so easy to make and totally want to try. And Happy 40th Birthday. So glad you got to celebrate in style!! 😉
ReplyDeleteThank you Janine and they are so easy to make and so delish too that I just know that you'll love them.
DeleteYum! What a hit these would be! I'd have to substitute a different kind of cheese personally, but whatever. It's all about that good chicken rolled up!
ReplyDeleteHappy 40! I hope I'm as excited as you've been when I turn 40.
Oh you can add whatever cheese you want to and knowing you, I just KNOW that you'll be just as excited or maybe even more so. :)
DeleteThese look easy and delicious. I'll have to make these for my relatives with celiac for our next picinic.
ReplyDeleteYou'll love them yourself too so make some for yourself too. :)
DeleteThese Gluten Free Buffalo Chicken Roll Ups look so delicious! At first glance, I didn't even realize that the chicken was the actual wrap. I will have to try this one day. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, there is no bread in this one but you can totally do it that way if you would prefer. :)
DeleteThose look great. I love gluten-free recipes. They remind me of sushi :)
ReplyDeleteOh not so sure about sushi but they taste just as good. :)
DeleteThose sound super yum! My kids are going to love these. A lot.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that they would. I know that my kids love them. :)
DeleteBrilliant! I could seriously eat these everyday, all day! I am going to make them this weekend, for sure. Hopefully I won't add too much bleu cheese, though :)
ReplyDeleteIf you do I'm pretty sure that it will still taste amazing. Enjoy!
DeleteThese look delicious! As someone that needs gluten free, this looks like it would have a ton of taste and it would be filling too!
ReplyDeleteOh yes it will be. While I highly recommend them for parties, etc., I also eat them as snacks too. Just don't eat too much as once. I know it's tempting. :)
DeleteWhat a fun idea to try! My friend is Gluten FREE and I know she would love this one! Lots of different ideas to fill in the middle with just about anything.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure she would. Next time she comes over to visit, you now have something to feed her, that she'll love.
DeleteI love the flavor of buffalo chicken. These roll-ups sound so delicious. I can't wait to try this recipe. I think the whole family will love these.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure that they would, especially if they love buffalo chicken.
DeleteI would really love to try this asap. I love buffalo sauce and can't wait to sink my teeth in. They look easy as well as delicious. I love easy meals during the summer when the grandkids are here.
ReplyDeleteOh yes, they are pretty easy to make and very delicious. They do have a kick to them so be careful when feeding younger kids.
DeleteOh yum! I think I'd like these a lot. They're really pretty and would be great for parties.
ReplyDeleteThey are perfect for parties. They make the best appetizers!
DeleteBuffalo chicken anything is so good! I am not really a fan of blue cheese but I haven't tried it in a while.
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE blue cheese and can never have enough. I have crumbles right now in my refrigerator saved up for another recipe. :)
DeleteThese look and sound delicious. I love buffalo chicken flavors. Fun with a kick.
ReplyDeleteYou got that right! They are fun and delicious with a kick.
DeleteWhat a delicious light and healthy lunch this would be for my family. I like how simple and quick it is to make.
ReplyDeleteIt sure is easy to make and if you're running low on time, then this is perfect.
DeleteThese are great and look really easy to make. One rather odd question. What is buffalo sauce?
ReplyDeleteHi Tori, buffalo sauce is a spicy sauce that you can find in your local supermarket. You should find it in the condiments section, it's usually with your BBQ sauces etc. :)
DeleteThese would make a great after school snack or lunch. I love buffalo sauce, so I will have to try them.
ReplyDeleteOh yes you would love them. If you love buffalo sauce or anything buffalo sauce related, then you'll love this.
DeleteI don't eat chicken, but these rolls look great! I am trying to see what I can replace chicken with and make the same rolls.
ReplyDeleteYou can probably replace it with any other meat that you eat. How about Turkey. Now if you don't eat meat then I couldn't help you. :)
DeleteYummy! Though we're fried chickens that any other chicken, I think I might give this one a try. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome. I'm not really big on fried chicken but I do eat it every now and then.
DeleteWhat a great idea! These are the perfect finger foods!
ReplyDeleteYes they truly are and they're very delicious too!
DeleteThey look really yummy, I'm a sucker for a quick meal. This will be a perfect snack for the kids once school is out.
ReplyDeleteOr even when school isn't out. They make great snacks and they taste amazing!
DeleteThis looks like a wonderful snack for the family!! Yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteIt really is and the blue cheese and the buffalo sauce makes it taste even better.
DeleteI am always looking for healthy gluten free options for my son's lunch since he has a wheat allergy and has to eat gluten free. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome. My youngest son who is autistic is supposed to stay away from gluten as well so I try and make as many gluten free meals as I can.
DeleteThat looks really good. Definitely great snacks. Thanks for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome Garf. I hope you make it because you'll love it.
