    Flavor overload my friend. This right here will make your taste buds explode!

    Amazing smoked chicken doused in BBQ sauce and mixed with a bunch of fresh summer veggies…then topped with cheddar cheese (I’d suggest sharp cheddar for this one!)…piled high over a plate of pasta.

    Drooling.

    Seriously, I might have had to wipe a little drool off my chin while I typed this up! You’ll want to add this to your meal plan ASAP!

    P.S. If your store doesn’t have precooked smoked chicken, you could grill 2 chicken breasts coated in BBQ sauce, then chop them up and mix them in.
