CREAMY FIESTA SPAGHETTI

Creamy Fiesta Spaghetti image

I love spaghetti casseroles and this one has more flavor with the chili powder in the sauce. The evaporated milk poured over the top melts into the cheese and makes it extra creamy.

Ingredients

2 cups chopped onions
1/2 cup chopped celery
2 cloves garlic, crushed

2 1/2 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) package thin spaghetti
