Southwestern twist on classic Italian dish with chicken for a lighter option.
Ingredients:
  • 6 oz uncooked spaghetti
  • 1 tablespoon butter or margarine
  • 1 small green bell pepper, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 medium stalk celery, chopped (1/2 cup)
  • 1 small onion, chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 1 can (10 oz) diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
  • 1 can (8 oz) tomato sauce
  • 1 loaf (8 oz. box) VELVEETA™ Original Cheese, cut into cubes
  • 2 cups diced deli rotisserie chicken (from 2- to 2 1/2-lb chicken)
  • Sliced jalapeño chiles, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F and generously coat a 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray. Follow package instructions to cook and drain spaghetti.
  • In a 12-inch skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Add bell pepper, celery, and onion, stirring occasionally until tender. Stir in tomatoes, tomato sauce, cheese, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to low and continue stirring until the cheese is melted.
  • Combine the chicken and spaghetti and transfer the mixture into a baking dish. Bake without a cover for approximately 30 minutes, or until the edges are bubbling. Sprinkle the top with chiles before serving.
