  • 1/2 tsp onion powder

  • 8 oz spaghetti, broken in half
  • to taste chopped parsley or green onions (optional garnish)

  • Place chicken breasts in crockpot. Top with cream of chicken soup, Rotel, cubed Velveeta, broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours or HIGH for 2.5–3 hours until chicken is fork-tender.

Notes

To avoid mushy pasta, undercook the spaghetti before adding it to the crockpot. Stir frequently after adding pasta and cheese. For extra creaminess, stir in sour cream or a splash of milk before serving. Store leftovers in the fridge for 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
