  Ingredients (Serves 6–8)


Main Ingredients:


2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or chopped)

Use rotisserie chicken or leftover roasted chicken for ease and flavor.


3 cups dry spaghetti, broken into 2-inch pieces

Breaking the pasta makes it easier to mix and eat—perfect for casseroles.



Creamy Sauce:


1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup

(Or substitute cream of chicken if preferred; adds richness and depth.)


1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup


1 cup sour cream

Gives the dish that luscious, creamy texture.


1 cup milk

To loosen the sauce and help coat every strand of pasta.


2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided

One for mixing in, one for topping—because cheese is life.


1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper (optional)

Adds color and a mild crunch.


1/2 cup chopped onion (optional)

Adds savory balance and flavor depth.


Salt & black pepper, to taste

Season it your way!

   Instructions


1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.



2. Boil the pasta just until al dente (not fully cooked—it’ll finish baking in the oven). Drain and set aside.



3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, 1 cup of shredded cheese, and your seasonings. Stir in the chicken, cooked spaghetti, green peppers, and onions if using.



4. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.



5. Top with remaining 1 cup of cheddar cheese.



6. Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes or until hot and bubbly, and the cheese is melted and golden on top.

   Pro Tips

Use a mix of cheeses like Monterey Jack or mozzarella for a creamier pull.


Make it ahead: Assemble and refrigerate up to 24 hours before baking. Perfect for busy weeknights!


Freeze it: This casserole freezes beautifully before baking. Just thaw and bake when ready.
