Notes

Time Saving Tip:

This recipe is perfect with leftover chicken. I love using my chicken from my all-purpose slow cooker chicken. Make it ahead of time and use it all week long. I use it for easy wraps or salads for lunch. Then I add it to casseroles or soups for dinner.

Cooking Tips:

  • No Rotini? No problem! Just use any of your favorite pasta for this recipe. 
  • Use a homemade ranch seasoning to enhance the flavors.
  • Add veggies for a complete meal. We love to toss in frozen peas, corn, or broccoli before baking to add more to the casserole. 
  • Try using cooked rice instead of pasta for a fun new way to make this casserole.

Ranch Seasoning:

If you can't find ranch seasoning in the store try making your own. You can add more or less of any spice to create a seasoning to your taste. 
  • ½ cup dry buttermilk
  • 1 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 2 teaspoons dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon dried chives
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
Mix together and store in an air tight container. Measure and use according to directions.
