ingredients
- 1/2 lb. bacon, cooked and chopped

- 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded

- 1 jar Alfredo sauce (14.5 oz) (Easy recipe HERE if you need one)
directions
- Preheat oven to 375 and grease a 9 x 9 baking dish.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Cook bacon until brown and crispy, about 7 minutes. Drain fat and place bacon on a paper towel to absorb the grease.
- In a gallon size Ziploc bag, add in the olive oil, diced chicken (raw at this point), and Ranch mix. Shake around in bag until chicken is evenly coated.
- Add chicken to skillet and cook until no longer pink. Set aside.
- In a pot of boiling water, cook pasta until al dente. Drain water and add pasta to greased baking dish.
- Add cooked chicken and Alfredo sauce to the pasta.
- Sprinkle both cheeses, bacon, and salt/pepper to the top of the Alfredo and place pan in oven.
- Bake until bubbly and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and serve!! Enjoy!!
