Easy Buffalo Chicken Cassarole

I haven't posted a recipe in so long! Life has been crazy, but I'm back. :)

What you'll need:
- 1-1.5 lbs cooked chicken (I prefer boiled chicken)
- 1/3 cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup ranch/blue cheese (I used Hidden Valley ranch)
- 1/3 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheese (will be split in half)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 5 cups frozen hashbrowns/shredded potatoes

*** I cut this recipe in half due to their only being two of us to eat it, but boy was it gone fast!


First,"marinate" or mix the chicken with the buffalo sauce in a small/medium sized bowl. Sit to the side. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.


Next, mix the rest of the ingredients together in a medium/large sized bowl. 
Only use half of the shredded cheese in the mixture.


 In a greased 9x13 pan, pour and spread the potato/ranch/cheese etc. mixture. Then, pour the marinated chicken on top. Press the chicken into the bottom mixture. (I'm just scared the chicken will lose its flavor if its all mixed together, but feel free to do just that and let me know how it goes!)


Put it in the oven for 25 minutes, then use the last half of the cheese to cover the top. Cover with foil and bake for about 5 minutes or until the cheese is evenly melted.


 Serve immediately!



It's super yummy as leftovers and will be gone before you know it! Enjoy. :)
