Sriracha Buffalo Bites

Sriracha Buffalo Bites are a crowd-pleasing finger food your kids will love, especially if they like spicy and hot food!  This easy to prepare recipe needs just 20 minutes in the oven and then it's ready to be dipped in your favorite sauce (I prefer chunk bleu cheese myself).  The ingredients make for a tasty, yet healthy lunch option full of good protein and fats.  Avocado oil burns at higher temperatures, so you retain all the vitamins.  Adjust the seasoning/sauce to a temperature and spice of your liking!
