Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange chicken on the baking sheet.
- Bake chicken in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
- Dice chicken and place in a bowl; add ranch mix and stir until coated.
- Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain bacon slices on paper towels, reserving bacon grease in the skillet. Crumble bacon into small pieces.
- Heat reserved bacon grease in the skillet; cook and stir bell pepper until slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken, 1 jar Alfredo sauce, milk, and garlic; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain.
- Pour 1/2 the jar of remaining Alfredo sauce into a casserole dish; top with 1/2 of the penne, 1/2 of the chicken mixture, 1 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese, and 1/2 of the bacon. Repeat layering with remaining ingredients in the same order ending with 1 cup mozzarella cheese and bacon on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until casserole is bubbling and cheese is lightly browned, about 30 minutes.

- Spray a medium to large pan with non-stick cooking spray and then place over medium to medium-high heat.
- While the pan is warming up, drain 2 cans of chicken adding to pan directly after draining.
- Add real bacon bits and monterey chicken seasoning (I prefer McCormick's) into pan with the chicken.
- After the chicken mixture is warmed through, transfer to a bowl and let cool for a couple of minutes.
- With the chicken mixture still warm add in 4-6 ounces of colby jack cheese (if you don't like colby jack you can use shredded cheddar too) and mix together.
- Then add in about 2/3 of a 16 ounce bottle of Ranch Dressing (which is about 10 ounces) to the chicken and cheese mix and stir.
- Add 1 large spoonful, or as much you would like, of the chicken mix to a pita pocket and then a small handful of shredded lettuce onto the top.
- Enjoy!
