Ingredients
  

  • 7 oz spaghetti cooked al dente
  • 2 cups cooked chicken cut into bite-sized pieces (rotisserie chicken works great)
  • 8 oz shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup bell peppers green or red, chopped
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 2 cans 10.75 oz each condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tbsp butter
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup jack cheese shredded
  • Optional: 1/2 cup mushrooms or celery sliced

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Cook the Spaghetti: Boil the spaghetti according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  • Sauté the Vegetables: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, bell peppers, and optional mushrooms or celery. Sauté until tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Prepare the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup and milk until smooth. Pour this mixture into the skillet with the sautéed vegetables. Stir in the cheddar cheese and cook until melted and creamy.
  • Combine Ingredients: Stir in the cooked chicken and spaghetti, mixing well to coat everything evenly in the sauce.
  • Assemble the Casserole: Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and pour in the spaghetti mixture, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the jack cheese on top.
  • Bake: Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes, until bubbling and the cheese is melted and golden.
  • Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy the creamy, cheesy goodness!

Notes

  • Variations: Use different cheeses like mozzarella or gouda, add extra veggies like spinach or jalapeños, or swap chicken for turkey or shrimp.
  • Serving Suggestions: Pair with a fresh salad, garlic bread, or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
