bbq shredded chicken and carmelized red onion ranch spaghetti

i'm going to start off with the recipe i made last night w/ my good friend, asian steph... it was soo yummy! and EASY! maybe, possibly, a little healthy too :) or lets just say it is!
this reminds me a little of bbq chicken pizza or salad.. which happens to be one of my favorite things... next time, i might try some corn in there..

i was going to try to make my own bbq chicken in the slow cooker, but decided last min that i really wanted to eat this last night. so i just went to the store and got a rotisserie chicken, shredded it and put a light coat of bill johnsons bbq sauce.. so yummy!
