Ingredients
- Cooked and shredded chicken
- Cream cheese, softened
- Ranch dressing
- Shredded cheddar cheese
- Cooked bacon, crumbled
- Green onions, chopped
- Optional: Pasta or rice
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, softened cream cheese, and ranch dressing; mix well until smooth.
- Stir in most of the cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped green onions until well distributed.
- If using pasta or rice, spread it in the bottom of a greased baking dish and pour the chicken mixture over it. Otherwise, simply spread the chicken mixture in the dish.
- Sprinkle remaining cheddar cheese on top and bake in a preheated oven until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Notes
- Use a rotisserie chicken to save time.
- Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to prevent lumps.
- Don’t overbake; you want the cheese just melted and bubbly.
- Add crumbled crackers on top for extra crunch.
- Adjust ranch dressing quantity to suit taste preferences.
