About


I invented this recipe because I love the taste of the Anchor Bar's Buffalo Wings but wanted a low cal version.
Another good trick is to place the coated wings on a rack in a larger baking pan, so all the fat drips off.
I like the easy clean-up:  roll up the aluminum foil and recycle, and toss the bag of into the compost-ables.
