Recipe Exchange: Chicken Spaghetti

Preparing a meal for your family can be pretty tough some days. To make this task a little easier, we offer you "Chicken Spaghetti," which was submitted to us by Marie Montague, a social worker from Durham County. You'll love it!

Chicken Spaghetti 6 chicken leg quarters 1 lb. Spaghetti 2 lb. box of Velveeta cheese cut in 1-inch cubes Boil chicken quarters in water seasoned with salt, pepper, and garlic. Save broth. Cook spaghetti in the chicken broth. While spaghetti is cooking, de-bone the chicken. Remove all but about 2 cups of broth. Add chicken and cheese. Stir until melted. If your kids can stand it, you can add one or all of the following: 1 small can mushroom pieces; 1 small jar pimentos; 1 bell pepper, chopped and sauteed; 1 small onion, chopped and sauteed.
