Heat a medium size skillet over medium high heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and cook the chicken for about ⏱️ 5 minutes or until cooked through. Add 1/4 cup or so of the buffalo sauce and cook until the chicken absorbs the sauce. Add the broccoli and cook ⏱️ 3-5 minutes or until the broccoli is tender. Remove from the heat.

In a large salad bowl, toss together the cooked quinoa, chicken, broccoli, carrots, shredded cabbage, and as much of the dressing as desired. Add the blue cheese and half of the green onions. Toss again and serve warm with extra blue cheese crumbles, the remaining green onions, and avocado.
