Crockpot Mexican Chicken Spaghetti

January 15, 2020 by My Farmhouse Table 4 Comments

Crockpot Mexican Chicken Spaghetti

We are kicking off Week #2 of January’s “Double Dinners” theme. When I was working at coming up with recipes for this month, I realized it has been a while since I’ve shared a chicken main course on the blog. Well that drought ends today with this Crockpot Mexican Chicken Spaghetti.

This is a family favorite recipe that we have been making for years.

Mostly because other than cooking the pasta, everything is put together in a crockpot.

Which makes this meal both a “Double Dinner” and a slow cooker favorite.

That is what I consider a Win-Win.

Just combine a few pantry staples into your Crockpot:

Velveeta, cooked chicken, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, a can of petite diced tomatoes, can of green chilies, and a small onion.

A little salt and pepper. Turn on Low and cook for a couple hours. Stir in the cooked spaghetti and dinner is ready.

But since this a post on making the meal a “Double Dinner”, let’s talk about how to freeze for round number two!

Once the mixture has cooked for a couple hours, I dish out half of the cheesy chicken goodness into a freezer safe container. Label the top with reheating instructions and stick in the freezer to eat at another time.

Then stir in the cooked pasta to the remaining half that is in the crockpot. Serve with a big green salad on the side and dinner is ready!

      It is super mild. The only ingredient that MAY include a little heat is the can of mild green chiles.

    You add the ingredients right to the slow cooker and while the chicken cooks, it makes the sauce all by itself. Pull the chicken out, shred it up, and add it back to the crock pot with the cooked pasta, sprinkle a little cheese on top and you re ready to eat! It s seriously that quick and easy.
