CONFETTI CHICKEN SPAGHETTI CASSEROLE
Oh my, this is not your normal marinara-based spaghetti casserole. The Rotel cheese sauce mixed with the delicious vegetables and spaghetti makes this dish special. It's cheesy with a bit of heat. We love all the colorful and crunchy vegetables in the casserole. This is great for a weekly dinner or a potluck. Serve with garlic...
