Buffalo Chicken Cheesy Pasta

After the holidays I realized I had forgotten to make my Buffalo Chicken Dip.  I had all the ingredients except for tortilla chips or crackers.  I wanted to use up my ingredients so I decided to try a pasta dish instead.  The results were a rich and creamy pasta that my family enjoyed.
