Cheesey Chicken Spaghetti

Now that my mom is not here cooking for us for a few more days...I have to cook. It is only fair that I do the cooking with Jake being gone coaching practice or games, but I still don't like to cook. So I have turned to pintrest.com for inspiration. (Please know recipes are not the only thing I look for, and yes I am quite addicted to this website.)

I found an easy croc pot recipe that even Jake thought looked good. With it being a game night, and it only taking a few hours to cook (but so much longer to get in the croc pot with two little girls that don't want to sleep when I want them to) we decided we should try it.

Crockpot Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti
Serves 12 ( one cup each)

16 oz. dry spaghetti, cooked
1 lb. Velveeta Light (2%)Cheese
12.5 oz can chicken breast, drained & flaked
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of chicken soup
10 oz. can diced tomatoes
4 oz can mushroom stems & pieces, drained
1/2 cup water1 small onion,
diced1 med. green pepper, diced
salt & pepper to taste

Spray slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. Combine all ingredients in slow cooker and stir to mix well. Cook on LOW for 2-3 hours. Stir again just before serving.

So far, after getting it all in the croc pot, it looks delicious! I am very excited to try it when Jake gets home from their game.

So pretty much when you become a stay at home mom you some how have to figure our how to cook 5-7 meals a week...at least that is how it was for me! And let me tell you, " yikes". BUT, I found great refuge in "allrecipes.com"... they send you free recipes everyday to your email and I've gotten quite a few recipes that I have used and liked. I'm a sucker for reading the reviews of the recipes too and seeing how other people tweeked/changed them. Try it out!
