MK's Ranch Stroganoff

2 cups of dry pasta, whatever style you like. Add to 4 cups of boiling water and cook until just soft, do not over cook. Set aside (Drain almost all the liquid, you don't want it becoming sticky)

For Chicken, cube up 2-3 raw chicken breasts (or 4-6 raw chicken tenders)

For Beef, use 2-3 cups of leftover beef roast or 2 lbs of ground beef

Cook the chicken in a large saucepan in 1 cup of chicken broth (I use low sodium broth in the boxes) cook for 3-4 minutes or until they are not pink.

For leftover beef roast, bring 1 cup beef broth to a boil, add roast until heated.

For ground beef, brown beef in pan until fully cooked, add 1 cup beef broth and simmer for 5 min.

For all meat options, remove the meat from the broth it is in and set aside in a covered bowl.

Bring broth to a simmer over medium heat, turn to low and add 1 cup milk, (evaporated works well or whatever milk you have.) stir in ½ cup ranch dressing. Add 2 handfulls of shredded cheddar cheese. Stir briskly until cheese is melted.

Add cooked pasta to meat mixture, stir well and heat thoroughly on low, stir so it does not burn.
