Creamy Chicken Spaghetti

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

This creamy chicken spaghetti is such an incredibly delicious dinner idea thats guaranteed to be a huge hit.

They love the creamy cheese sauce baked over the pasta and shredded chicken. It's the ultimate comfort food, especially during the cooler months we have here in Jersey.

Once the weather starts to drop, making this is all I can think about. This is one of those 'stick-to-your-ribs' dinners that keep everyone warm and full for hours and I think thats exactly what comfort food is supposed to do.

Whenever we have some leftover rotisserie chicken, I usually go straight to making this or my Chicken Tetrazzini. They're both similar but this recipe incudes vegetables and a bit of a bolder flavor. My family loves them both but I think this recipe might take the cake!

Using shredded rotisserie chicken is a major shortcut and makes this recipe super easy to put together. Its the perfect thing to whip up on a busy weeknight.

The best part is that it makes a lot of food, too. We usually have leftovers that last us a couple days and thats just fine by me! I think this is one of those recipes that taste even better the next day, too.

Whenever I make this for dinner, I always make sure to package some up into containers and take them to parents house because I know this is one of my brothers favorite meals, also. We are all big, big fans.

I hope you give this one a try. I know that if you do, you’ll love it just as much as my family and I do.

Fast. Simple. Delicious.

Creamy Chicken Spaghetti Variations

I like this recipe for chicken spaghetti made just the way it is, but here are some ways to change it up if you'd like to.

• Pasta- Any pasta would work for this recipe if you'd prefer not to use spaghetti.
• Cheese- Use any kind of cheese that you'd like to for this. Just be sure to shred it yourself because it will melt much better that way.
• Soup- Use two cream of chicken soup cans if you're not into the cream of mushroom.
• Tomatoes- Canned diced tomatoes will be ok to use instead of Rotel.
