Buffalo Chicken Burger Bowl
The following recipe and photography were provided by local blogger Carolyn Hodges of The Dinner Shift.
If you’re in the market for a really simple weeknight dinner, make your way over to Heinen’s Meat Department and check out their selection of gourmet burgers! These premade patties are perfectly seasoned and come in a variety of flavors. Made fresh in-store by Heinen’s butchers and available in beef, chicken, turkey, and plant-based bean, there’s really a burger for everyone! You can even find fresh salmon burgers in the Seafood Department.
Of course, burgers are delicious on a toasted Heinen’s brioche bun with toppings, but they’re also the perfect protein topper for main dish salads. I picked up Heinen’s Buffalo Chicken Burgers for this fun spin on a buffalo chicken salad complete with celery, carrots, blue cheese and ranch!
It’s full of flavor, totally filling and super satisfying. It will be on repeat all summer long for my family and yours too!
