Pioneer Woman is the bomb! My chicken spaghetti was much more successful than my soup last week. Instead of using a whole fryer, I used two boneless, skinless chicken breasts. I only had half a box of (whole wheat) pasta and when I broke it up, it only ended up being 2 cups, but my pieces were smaller than PW's. I reserved chicken water, but didn't end up using it. And instead of the cream of mushroom soup, I used this cream of chicken soup mix with 2 1/2 cups of water. I also used a Mexican cheese blend (from Costco) instead of all cheddar and tried to cut back a little. I think I ended up using about one cup in the casserole and one cup on top. Lastly, I prepared this in two separate Pyrex dishes. I cooked one, and stuck the other in the freezer. Hopefully it will cook up nicely some day in the future. It tasted great! The only thing I would change is I would cut the onion into smaller pieces. Since it is only cooked in the oven, it was still a tiny bit raw, which I liked, but other people might not. Oh, that reminds me, I only used half an onion. But that's because I had an enormous one. I think half of it counted as one medium onion. I'm going to save it for next week's onion heavy corned beef recipe!
