Lunch: Buffalo-Ranch Alfredo Pasta

Recipe by Candace Braun Davison Make this meal even heartier by topping the dish with chopped, grilled chicken (or rotisserie!).

Ingredients

1 box pasta (we used Cavatappi)
1 stick butter, unsalted
1/4 c. Hot sauce
1 package cream cheese (8 ounces)
1 1/4 c. milk
1/2 packet ranch seasoning mix

Instructions

Cook pasta according to the package's instructions, drain and set aside.
As the pasta cooks, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the hot sauce, stirring occasionally, then add the cream cheese. Use a wooden spoon to break up the cream cheese a bit, then whisk the mixture together until creamy, slowly adding in the milk as you go.
Sprinkle in half of the packet of Ranch seasoning, stirring it in until fully combined. Toss the sauce with pasta, and top with crumbled blue cheese and diced jalapenños (optional). Serve.
