* I used the breast meat from a rotisserie style chicken found in the grocery deli department for convenience.

** Want more hot sauce? You can add up to 2 more tablespoons as an additional condiment.

*** If you can not find reduced fat feta or reduced fat blue cheese, use 1 tbsp of the regular kind as 1 Condiment or 2 tbsp as 2 Condiments.
