Crack Chicken Spaghetti - Everyone RAVES about this easy soup recipe. Add milk and cook, stirring often, until thickened.
Church this week was a fiasco. MY LATEST VIDEOS And by spiritually uplifting, I mean for all those people without kids. His little bowels decided that today would be the day to explode. A day where we looked relatively put together for church too. Talk about a kick in the pants. Sooooo, that problem has brought me elbow deep in….. There are no words to describe you today. Someone just give me a sleeping pill and wake me up when tomorrow is here. But Lauren, what does this have to do with Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti? Heck, after the day I had, I think we all can agree that me forming clear and concise sentences is the biggest win of the day. But in all seriousness, I made some cheesy chicken spaghetti in a crockpot and it was good. I actually started this recipe in the freezer, then moved it to the fridge to defrost, then into the crockpot to cook. Who knew those freezer crockpot meals are lifesavers. Especially on days that involve fourteen million diapers and eighty-four thousand tubes of diaper cream. Have I mentioned that I love cheese? Feel free to share your favorite crockpot freezer meal in the comments below. I have a lot of ideas but would love to hear your ideas too. The printable recipe is below. Have a better day than me, friends! Stir to mix ingredients. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or until chicken is fully cooked. Remove chicken breasts, shred and return to crock-pot. Pour in cooked spaghetti and remaining cheese. Toss to coat pasta in sauce and melt cheese, adding in a few splashes of chicken stock where necessary to get sauce consistency you want. Cook another 20-30 minutes on low and serve. You make me laugh so much! I love reading your blog! Diaper issues… Last week I was supposed to have a play date with a friend of mine and her daughter. Now, I have 2 boys in school, then a 2 year old daughter and a 11 month old son. Out older kids go to the same school. I also feel like a single mom most of the time as my hubby is ALWAYS out of the country. OK, it seems like always. Anyway, digressing aside, it was one of those mornings where I was lucky to leave the house with pants on and with all the brood in the car. So, when I pulled up to school super late btw I saw her car waiting for me and my gut fell onto my shoes. We decided to still go to her house, maybe she will have a stray diaper somewhere? I cloth, so eventually she had to cut up one of her hand towels so I could stuff his pocket diaper. Hey, what are friends for!? Not sure why you would want to read about that? Great blog, great posts, awesome food. My husband and daughter both claim to hate all things mushroom. I still use it and they have no idea. I wanted to still use the mushroom because you do not taste any mushroom. It just melds so well with the sauce and the spices. They could not taste it and loved it. My husband claims to not like mushrooms in anything but I have a few recipes that I use cream of mushroom soup in and he loves them. My husband is gluten free and Cream of Mushroom, Cr. Add flour and mix well to make a rue. Add broth I use chicken for cream of chicken or beef for cream of mushroom. You can also add chopped mushrooms if you like them. Whisk well over heat until thickened. I use this substitute in all recipes that call for cream soups. How long would this take on low? Is there a general rule for xx at high equals xx at low? My husband is up on the stand each week, which leaves me with 3 littles to wrestle. I feel for ya girl, I do. Maybe when she said stand, she meant hunting tree stand, not a pulpit stand, or another sort altogether. This is a blog with cooking, not time to judge others. Pull the stick out of your own eye, let he without sin cast the first stone, etc……. At least, that is what my church teaches!! Now back to what we are here for,… the FOOD! Looks awesome, definitely going to try this. I think I will make it up casserole style though, and add some finely chopped mushrooms. Loos great — the pictures make one drool!! Those days are hard! I love crock pot freezer meals! I just had my fourth baby, so have been bulking up my freezer meals again-looking forward to your posts this month! My husband us deploying in November for his first longer one after several shorties — not looking forward to it! Love the freezer idea since my recipe is too big for the 2 of us. On Sundays my husband too was always on the platform. Consequentially, one our children thought they could get away with anything. Having to leave in front of everyone solved the problem. Never had to do more than snap my fingers after that. The kids are grown, but even now snapping my fingers when they are here causes them to stop, stand still and be silent! So, you will laugh about that and miss it — someday. That makes you a military wife. I was once a military wife, And I would give anything to still hold that title instead of single mom. He WILL be home. Single mom parenthood is not a glorious life…you are still able to share with your husband the highs and lows of your day, the accomplishments of your children and still hear the words I love you. And, this is in NO WAY meant to be derogatory. I have lived both lives. They are both hard- but military wife parenting is entirely different than single mother parenting. I am hoping you are able to understand what I am trying to say. I can guarantee your husband would much rather not want to be gone and make you take on the sole responsibility of raising kids for 5 months…I did 3 deployments, 7 months each time. Thank you to you and your husband for your service. After all, you are the backbone of of the military. The bell peppers only add color and crunch; no heat. The heat come from the chiles. I control the heat by using mild vs. For crunch, I use whatever I have in my veggie bin…bell pepps, carrots, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, extra onions…whatever. They should tenderize without the sauté if cooked 5-8 hours. I have three children with the oldest 12. So I feel your pain and can see the humor. Funny though that you paired that story with the cheesy chicken noodle slow cooker recipe which I am trying tonight by the way since spicy food and lots of cheese can easily cause diarrhea in children… So next time better not to fix this dish on Saturday night before church Sunday morning. Will keep an eye out for your future posts. When my husband is away for work and staying at hotels with kitchen suites, he crock pot cooks every day. He uses that timer for any meal that will be done before he returns after work. This recipe was amazing. This tastes just like it, but is a little lighter using spaghetti I actually used angel hair so you can enjoy a bit more of it. I absolutely loved it. Her husband is away at Army training so, yes, she is single parenting. We are all in this life together, be supportive, not judgmental — just saying. Thank you for defending Lauren! I am quite a few years older than most on this site so I would like to offer some advice. We are all in this world together so it would behoove us not to be soooo judgmental. My husband is away at least 4 days in a row each week. Every week, except 3 weeks of vacation, for the last 15 years.. Do I EVER call myself a single mother? SHELLY, I can judge on this matter. She should call herself what she is…a Military Wife. At least my husband is home every few days. You go ahead and bash me, but I bet understand better than you do what her life is like. That is like saying that she is not a military wife when her husband is home because he is not on deployment. So she is a part-time single parent and military wife and blogger and sounds like a wonderful mother who has her hands full as well. Thank you for your blog and thank you for all you do so your husband can protect and serve us all. Although I adored this article, I have to agree with this comment. It was offensive for me…. And this recipe sure looks awesome. But, in your defense, you dod saythe highlight of your day was being able to speak coherently. I just copied your Chicken and Spaghetti. I have a recipe that I have used for years, but your sound so much easier. I will try it. It is a dry mix that, when you need some cream soup for a recipe you just add water. It is much less expensive than buying a can of soup at the market. Since I had everything needed to make up a batch I went a step further and made up a gallon containers worth. The lady that showed us how to make this awesome stuff made up a sample. She just cooked up some elbow macaroni and mixed it with the soup, added a little cheese and warmed it through in the oven. I keep it in the pantry and as you can see the recipe is taped on the outside. Pinterest 1-21-2013 Pat Miller This is my first time visiting your website I thought I made up this recipe! The only difference is, I use a can of chunky Rotel rather than just the diced green chilies. The rotel gives it a bit more spice than the mild diced green chilies. Depending on what soup I have in my pantry, I have used cream of mushroom, cream of chicken or cream of celery. I also saute my onions, bell peppers, mushrooms and celery before adding them to the soup, chicken and and rotel mixture. After I mix it all together, including the spaghetti, I put a BUNCH of cheese on top, put the lid on and let the cheese melt. Cheese is my favorite food group as well! I am going to try your freezer idea, thanks!! Lauren- First, please relay my heartfelt thanks to your husband for his military service. I appreciate those who do things for my family that I cannot do-as in protect us like they do! Your post made me chuckle as I related to every angle of your day. While you may have felt defeated that day, you were actually victorious…over Satan, that is! He wanted to discourage you and make you retreat from church, but you made it thru in spite of the craziness. Kudos to you from one single parent to another! This was very very good! My husband really loved it, and I have made several versions of this but this was the best! I did however use three chicken breasts along with whole bell peppers and fresh grated cheddar cheese instead. I will definately use this recipe to feed big groups! Its hard cooking for two people, but now we can eat this for a few days and not get tired of it.
Along with the cheese, we used cream of chicken soup, chicken broth and dry ranch mix to build up the sauce. We will keep a look out for smaller recipes. Great blog, great posts, awesome food. My husband is away at least 4 days in a row each week. Ready to bake in a snap and on the table in 30 minutes. Who knew those freezer crockpot meals are lifesavers. Toss to coat pasta in sauce and melt cheese, adding in a few splashes of chicken stock where necessary to get sauce consistency you want. It is a dry mix that, when you need crack chicken spaghetti cream soup for a recipe you just add water. Cook another 20-30 minutes on low and serve.
