Chicken Bacon Ranch Casserole

March 11, 2016 by Kristin 154 Comments

If you follow my blog, you know I love a good casserole. Add in some bacon and I am in Heaven!! This casserole literally is mouth watering yummy and PACKED with flavor. Seasoned chicken, chopped up bacon, Alfredo sauce, and pasta…..what more could you ask for in one dish??

Last week, I whipped this up in the afternoon before the kids got home from school. Once dinner rolled around, I popped it in the oven and minutes later, it was on the table ready for devouring. The kids and my hubby all went crazy over this and the leftovers were even better!

Not only is this a quick dinner to prepare, but it is also fairly inexpensive!

Next time you are short on time, be sure to throw this together. Your family will thank you!!! Enjoy!
