2 cups whole wheat high fiber pasta or Banza Pasta I measure uncooked. (I use a Canadian product called PC blue menu penne, 2 cups uncooked pasta is 15pp based on my labels)
10 oz about 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
6 oz softened light cream cheese
1/4 cup light ranch dressing
1/2 cup franks hot sauce
2/3 cup reduced fat shredded cheese

Boil the pasta according to the package instructions. Drain off the water. Set the pasta to the side.
Preheat the oven to 350F and spray a 9x13 casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, add the pasta and chicken. In a small bowl, cream together the cream cheese, dressing, and hot sauce with a hand mixer or stand mixer.
Add the cream cheese mixture to the chicken and pasta and add ⅓ cup shredded cheese, leaving the other ⅓ cup aside.
Mix it well and pour it into the casserole dish, spreading it out evenly. Bake the casserole in the oven for 20 minutes. Add the remaining cheese on top then bake for another 5 minutes.
Remove it from the oven and cut it into 6 servings.
