CHICKEN SPAGHETTI...SO CREAMY......SO CHEESY......SO SOUTHERN!

If you grew up in the South, your Momma raised you to know how to prepare a good chicken spaghetti! It was almost the official item to serve at a ladies luncheon, funeral potluck or family reunion! My goodness gracious, how many times have my children asked me to make my chicken spaghetti? Anytime we had a work function where we planned a potluck luncheon, everyone requested Miss Betsy's chicken spaghetti. So I am assuming it's rather delicious to most everyone.

Now.....fair warning........ let go of your snobbery of using that old pantry staple of "cream of something or other Campbell's soup, cause' we all know that it's the one ingredient that will make your  casserole creamy and scrumptious! No doubt, your family just might sing for their supper!

Yes, you have noticed there are no exact measurements of seasonings. I am an old southern cook and I just use these to taste. You will be safe to use about 1/2 t. to 1 t. of each since this makes a large casserole.
