Baked Wings are a healthier option to their fried counterparts. These baked wings are done in under an hours time.
If you love wings, but don’t always love the calories you will love my easy Baked Wings recipe. Best of all no fried wings here but still all the same delicious tastes. For these wings I’ve tossed them in buffalo sauce then topped with Mexican crumbling cheese called queso fresco and some sliced green onions.
