Step 2
Add pasta and meat mixture together in a large bowl. Add bbq sauce, ranch dressing, and a cup of shredded cheese and stir together. Pour into a 2-quart casserole dish and top with the rest of the cheese. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until cheese is melted and heated through.

⭐TIP

I know that some people are not a fan of Velveeta, but I think it’s a must in this dish. It adds a creaminess level you can’t get with other cheeses. As for the BBQ sauce, add the flavor you enjoy. I’ve used mesquite and hickory, and both were a hit.

OTHER PASTA DISHES

  • Pizza Pasta Skillet – If you love pizza definitely add this one to your list! It’s easy and super versatile and wonderful for a busy night.
  • Alfredo Marinara Chicken Pasta – This is so easy and combines both alfredo and marinara sauce and we all love it.
  • Lazy Lasagna – This dish is only 4 simple ingredients and it’s always a hit! Made with frozen ravioli and delicious!
  • Cheesesteak Pasta Skillet – If you are a fan of cheesesteaks, this easy skillet will be one of your favorites!

STORING, REHEATING & SERVING SIZE

We store any leftovers in the refrigerator and you can reheat in the oven on 350 for 8-10 minutes. It may dry out the pasta so you may need to add more cheese or sauce. You can also just reheat in the microwave. This makes about 8 servings.
