Ingredients
  

8 oz (about 225g) penne pasta

2 cups cooked, shredded chicken

1 cup buffalo sauce (adjust to taste)

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1 cup sour cream

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles (optional)

1/2 cup chopped green onions (for garnish)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon onion powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 tablespoon olive oil (for greasing)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Cook the Pasta: In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the penne pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

      Prepare the Sauce: In a medium bowl, mix the shredded chicken with buffalo sauce. Then, combine cream cheese, sour cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl until smooth.

        Combine Ingredients: Stir the cooked pasta into the cream cheese mixture, then add in the buffalo chicken mixture. Fold in half of the shredded cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, reserving the other half for topping.

          Transfer to Baking Dish: Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with olive oil. Pour the pasta mixture into the dish, spreading it evenly.

            Add Toppings: Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and blue cheese crumbles (if using) evenly over the top of the pasta.

              Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.

                Garnish and Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving. Enjoy your delicious Buffalo Bliss Pasta Bake!
