Notes

If you are like me and aren't a service line chef for your family, my kids get what we eat. I skip the buffalo sauce for them and add a different dressing or just add more mashed avocado.. Another alternative that I have done is pull out some of the mixture into a bowl,  add an egg and form into patties. Then I just brown up in a skillet on the stove top.
