CHICKEN SPAGHETTI CASSEROLE: FOR SOME REASON OR ANOTHER, IT SEEMS TO BE THE FAVORITE OF THE MEN IN MY FAMILY. YUM!
We used to love this. I made it with 1 pound of spaghetti… so I increased the soup to 2 cans, boned a roasted chicken (about 4 cups) and doubled the vegetables, only increased the cheese by 1/2 cup and it was so good and creamy!
Great recipe! I used canned chicken and since I didn’t have any cheddar cheese on hand, I used a pizza mix with grated cheese. Yummy!
We enjoyed this. It’s a good recipe for using leftover chicken. Instead of peppers, I used sliced green olives with peppers.
I loved this recipe because it was different from other casseroles. I added a can of Rotel tomatoes and had to add chicken broth to make this look good. It was delicious and I will definitely do it again.
