Hi, I'm Danelle and this is where I dish about my favorite recipes. I focus on simple, family friendly fare and try to make feeding the family a little bit easier for everyone.
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or rotisserie chicken)
1 can (10.75 oz.) cream of chicken soup
1 can (10 oz.) diced tomatoes with green chilis
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tsp. onion powder
1 tablespoon butter
1 (8 oz.) brick Velveeta cheese, cubed
8 ounces spaghetti, cooked and drained
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut chicken into bite size pieces. In a large skillet melt butter over medium heat. Add cubed chicken, garlic & onion powder. Cook over medium-high heat until chicken is no longer pink. Stir in soup, cubed Velveeta and diced tomatoes with green chilis. Reduce heat to low, and cook until the cheese melts, stirring constantly. Stir in cooked spaghetti. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Pour into a lightly greased 2 quart casserole dish and bake for 30 minutes or until heated through.
Let's Dish
This stuff is seriously yummy comfort food. Kind of like macaroni and cheese with a kick! I try to refrain from second helpings most of the time. Otherwise having a food blog would serioulsy affect what the bathroom scale tells me every morning, but I just couldn't resist a second helping of this. The whole family loved it, and so did the extra boys that were eating dinner with us when I made it. Normally, I'm not a huge fan of processed cheese, but trust me, this is no time to be a food snob. It makes for great leftovers too. I may or may not have had two helpings the next day for lunch.
Who Dished It Up First
I found this recipe over at Plain Chicken. Thanks Steph!
There is nothing like a bit of comfort food from time to time, and your recipe looks delicious!
ReplyDeleteThis one works for me big time! Great recipe!!!
ReplyDeleteYou really have a great blog here, so many wonderful recipes. Your comment re the Velveeta (no time to be a food snob) made me laugh. This does look like an utterly delicious, wonderfully creamy and cheesy dish.
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you liked it. I know what you mean about not going back for seconds. I ate leftover of this twice in one day!
ReplyDeleteI make one almost just like this I just add sauted green peppers and onions! This is one of my favorite recipes! Makes me want to make some this weekend!
ReplyDeleteI love the flavors in this one!! Can't wait to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious and easy- always a good combination!
ReplyDeleteAhh I love this chicken spaghetti! This was a staple in my house growing up. Totally easy, but warm and comforting.
ReplyDeleteUm yes, I definitely have to make this yummy looking chicken spaghetti dish! I too feel the same way about Velvetta but sometimes I just have to trust in good taste - like yours - and go for it! :-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks so good! Adding it to my 'gotta try' list. :)
ReplyDeleteThis does look comforting. I've never had chicken spaghetti but I'll have to change that.
ReplyDeleteThat looks so creamy and wonderful. I'd love some for breakfast right about now :)
