Tex-mex Chicken Spaghetti Casserole

This makes a lot, but it freezes well and it's even better the next day.
"It was really good! After taking time to read the other reviews, I actually used mini farfalle and Cambell's Cream of Chicken AND Mushroom soup (never seen it before, but it was in one can and thought it might be a good substitute). After the questions about which brand of Rotel, I just used mild Rotel and did not drain the tomatoes, but I seasoned my chicken for additional flavor. I also put some shredded Fiesta Blend cheese on top the last 15 minutes of baking. My family absolutely LOVED it!" - leigh0829Yield: 10 Ready in 1 hours, 30 minutes

Tex-mex Chicken Spaghetti Casserole Preparation
Boil the chicken breasts in a large pot, reserving the water. While the chicken is boiling, melt the butter in a large, deep skillet and saute the onion and pepper until translucent. Add the soup, tomatoes, tomato sauce, and sliced Velveeta cheese to the onion and peppers and heat and stir until everything is warm and then set the mixture aside. When the chicken is done, remove to a plate to cool and bring the water to a boil. Break the spaghetti into 3 or 4 inch pieces and cook according to package directions. While the spaghetti is cooking, cut the chicken into bite sized pieces and add to the soup and cheese mixture in the skillet, stirring to mix well. Strain the spaghetti and rinse it with cool water and then add it to the chicken mixture, stirring to mix well. Turn all into a large baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 300 degrees for one hour. This is a heavy dish, so a light side dish such as a vegetable or salad would be good with this, but really it''s a meal by itself.
