Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy shortcut.
- Replace ranch dressing with blue cheese dressing for a more traditional Buffalo flavor.
- Substitute cauliflower for the pasta to make a lower-carbohydrate version.
- Add cooked bacon, jalapeños, mushrooms, or spinach for extra flavor.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
