I love easy dinner ideas that turn out great! My family can't stop talking about this Fiesta Ranch Chicken Pasta Bake! Just like most of you, we're a busy family. When dinner time rolls around, I hate trying to figure out what to make at the last minute! I usually keep a well stocked pantry with ingredients I know will help get me get in and out of the kitchen fast! I usually have a variety of Hidden Valley® Ranch products on hand because they provide so much flavor to my dishes with so little effort on my part!
My family really enjoys the flavors of the Southwest so I decided to make a pasta casserole using Hidden Valley® Fiesta Ranch Dips Mix. My family loves pasta!! I used some of my pantry staples and things I know my family loves to eat to create this Fiesta Ranch Chicken Pasta Bake! This yummy casserole is full of penne noodles, chicken, black beans, a creamy fiesta sauce and loads of cheese .... because every good casserole dish needs lots of cheese. Right?!
This dish is the perfect way to use leftover chicken - or grab a rotisserie chicken at your local supermarket! Serve this casserole with a fresh salad and you can have dinner ready in a jiffy!
