Directions
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Lightly spray the inside of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy.
- Combine Ingredients: Place the chicken breasts in the slow cooker. Add cream of chicken soup, cream of mushroom soup, Rotel tomatoes, cream cheese cubes, and Italian seasoning. Stir gently to combine without breaking up the chicken.
- Cook the Chicken: Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours until the chicken is tender and fully cooked.
- Shred the Chicken: Remove the chicken and shred it with two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the slow cooker, mixing well with the sauce.
- Add the Cheese: Stir in the shredded mozzarella and cheddar blend until fully melted and incorporated into the sauce.
- Cook the Spaghetti: While the cheese melts, cook the spaghetti according to package directions until al dente. Drain thoroughly.
- Combine Pasta and Chicken Mixture: Add the cooked spaghetti to the slow cooker, tossing to coat evenly with the creamy chicken mixture.
- Serve: Plate hot, and serve with garlic bread, a crisp green salad, or roasted vegetables for a complete, comforting meal.
