Chicken Spaghetti

This is a really easy meal that  I always have the ingredients for and the kids all love it.  Plus, it makes a very full 9X13 size pan with plenty of leftovers.  I tend to make it if I know the next day is going to be too hectic to find time to make a good dinner. (i.e. soccer season starts tomorrow!)

Ingredients:
8 ounces angel hair pasta
2 cups chopped, grilled chicken*
1 can cream of mushroom soup 
1 cancream of chicken soup
1 can (10 ounces) Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles, undrained (I use mild and this dish still has a little 'kick' to it!)
8 ounces sour cream
Garlic salt to taste (at least 1/2 tsp.) 
1-2 cups of vegetables (either canned or frozen)
1 cup cheddar or Mexican-blend cheese
Bacon bits - optional, (but they do give it a nice flavor!)


Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Boil pasta as package directs and drain. Mix all other ingredients (except cheese), add to cooked pasta and put in a 9" x 13" baking dish. Cover with foil and bake 30 minutes or until hot and bubbly. Sprinkle with your choice of cheese and return to oven to melt.

*Most of the time I actually leave out the chicken and make this a meatless meal (uhh.....unless you count the bacon bits!) It tastes great without the chicken, though then you can't really call it "chicken" spaghetti, can you?!
