Its game day and the weekend is packed with action and parties centered on football. Many people like to get together and chow down during the games. Most often, the foods of choice are pizza, and chips or deep-fried wings. For those who want to change up the menu and save on fat and calories here is a fantastic recipe I got from Women's Health Magazine....
Grilled Buffalo Wings
1 pound chicken tenders salt ground black pepper 1/3 cup prepared Buffalo wing sauce 4 ribs celery, cut into sticks 4 carrots, cut into sticks 2 kirby cucumbers, cut into spears 1/3 cup fat-free ranch dressing

1. Season the chicken tenders to taste with salt and pepper.
2. Coat a ridged grill pan with olive oil spray and heat over medium-high heat, or heat an electric countertop griller. Grill the chicken, turning once, about 4 minutes, or until browned and no longer pink in the thickest part. Cut into bite-sized pieces. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the Buffalo sauce.
3. Place the chicken on a platter with the celery, carrots, cucumbers, and the ranch dressing for dipping. Serve with a good supply of wooden picks.
