Ingredients
  

8 ounces spaghetti

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

1/2 cup ranch dressing

1/2 cup green onions, chopped (plus extra for garnish)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil.

    Cook the Spaghetti: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

      Combine the Chicken and Sauces: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce, cream cheese, ranch dressing, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.

        Mix in the Spaghetti: Add the cooked spaghetti to the chicken mixture and stir to evenly coat the pasta in the sauce.

          Add Cheese: Fold in half of the cheddar cheese and half of the mozzarella cheese into the spaghetti mixture. Mix until just combined.

            Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the entire mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

              Top with Remaining Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheddar and mozzarella cheeses on top of the spaghetti bake.

                Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are slightly golden.

                  Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
