Variations To Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

  • Use a different shape of pasta. Rigatoni, shells, elbow, etc. You can use any you have or enjoy. Just cook first before placing in slow cooker.
  • Consider using a ground chicken you cook up first, to replace shredded or diced chicken.
  • For added heat add a few splashes of your favorite hot sauce to kick up the heat.
  • Use a mozzarella cheese instead of a cheddar cheese. It will make the flavor a bit more mellow but still be just as delicious.

Meal Prep And Storage

If you want to use this pasta recipe as a meal prep go right ahead. Whip this up and then store leftovers in the refrigerator. Pack in lunch containers, so you can grab and go for meals. Whether it be lunch or dinner this chicken pasta reheats nicely.

Can You Freeze Leftover Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti

Due to the creamy ingredients you will find this recipe is not best when frozen. As it thaws the pasta will soften up quite a bit. Also, the cheese can kind of seperate and affect the texture of the pasta dish.

Plus pasta when reheated from frozen can become pretty tender and almost mushy if overheated.
