Chicken Spaghetti

What can I say about this chicken spaghetti....other than it's absolutely the BEST I have every had!!! Really, it's amazing! I especially like this recipe because it's Velveeta free! Don't get me wrong; I love Velveeta cheese but it's quite expensive and it gives me gas. (Sorry, TMI!) Anyway, you'll love this recipe, I promise! It's cheesy, creamy, very flavorful and very easy to prepare with few ingredients.
