Let me paint a purdy picture for you all. Wings were a HUGE guilty pleasure of mine throughout my second pregnancy. I was that 8 months pregnant lady wearing my husband’s old swimming t-shirt, slow walking up to the pizza shop… and ordering wings that I would proceed to eat like I was competing in Wing Bowl 2014. 😂 So I thought it might be a good idea to make a veggie option that doesn’t skimp on flavor flav. Don't forget the blue cheese sauce!! Orrrr do you like ranch? Let me know what you dip your wings in!
