Ingredients:

For the Chicken:

• 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)

• 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)

• 1/4 cup ranch dressing

For the Lasagna Layers:

• 9 no-boil lasagna noodles (or regular, cooked according to package)

• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

• 1 cup ricotta cheese

• 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 cup ranch dressing (for layering)

• 1/2 cup buffalo wing sauce (optional, for extra kick)

• 1/4 cup chopped green onions (plus extra for garnish)

• 1/4 cup chopped celery (optional, for crunch)

• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare Buffalo Chicken:
   In a bowl, combine shredded chicken, buffalo wing sauce, and 1/4 cup ranch dressing. Mix until well coated.

3. Make Creamy Cheese Mixture:
   In a separate bowl, mix ricotta cheese, cream cheese, 1/2 cup ranch dressing, salt, pepper, and half of the chopped green onions and celery.

4. Assemble the Lasagna:

   • Spread a thin layer of ranch dressing on the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.

   • Layer 3 lasagna noodles over the ranch.

   • Spread half of the buffalo chicken mixture over the noodles.

   • Add half of the creamy cheese mixture on top of the chicken.

   • Sprinkle 1/3 of the mozzarella and cheddar cheese blend.

   • (Optional) Drizzle a bit of buffalo wing sauce for extra heat.

   • Repeat layers: noodles, remaining chicken, remaining cheese mixture, cheese blend.

   • Top with the last 3 noodles, a final layer of ranch dressing, and the remaining mozzarella and cheddar cheese.

5. Bake:
   Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake an additional 10-15 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.

6. Garnish & Serve:
   Sprinkle with remaining green onions and extra chopped celery if desired. Serve warm with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side.
