  • Author: Adrianne Argumaniz
  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 55 minutes
  • Total Time: 1 hr 5 mins
  • Yield: Serves 8 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16oz of spaghetti noodles
  • 4 boneless skinless chicken breasts (cut into 1 inch cubes)
  • salt and pepper
  • cooking oil of choice
  • 110oz can Rotel (drained)
  • 210.5oz cans cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 cups pepper jack cheese (grated)
  • 1 1/2 cups yellow onion (chopped)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 3 tsp cumin
  • 3 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp coriander

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 9×13 casserole dish with cooking spray.
  2. Boil water and cook spaghetti noodles. Drain noodles, wipe out pot and return pasta to the pot.
  3. Grab a medium mixing bowl and toss your 1 inch chicken cubes with 1 1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp pepper until chicken is evenly coated.
  4. Heat 2 Tbsp of oil in a large skillet. When oil is hot add chicken in batches so there is enough room to see between all pieces. Evenly brown all sides and remove to a plate when cooked. Repeat with remaining chicken and add more oil if needed. Set chicken aside once all cooked.
  5. On med-low heat in the same skillet at 2 Tbsp of oil and saute your onion and garlic for 5 minutes until fragrant and tender. Stir in oregano, cumin, chili powder and coriander. Continue to saute until spices are fragrant, about 1 min.
  6. Grab a medium bowl and stir together Rotel, cream of chicken soup, sour cream and milk until evenly combined.
  7. Add cooked chicken, veggie mixture and soup mixture to pasta. Stir and mix until all parts are equally combined with the pasta. Pour mixture into prepped casserole dish. Sprinkle the top with grated pepper jack cheese.
  8. Set in your 350°F oven and bake for about 30 minutes until your sauce is bubbling and the cheese is melted.

Notes

Make a second batch and freeze for later if you’d like! Follow instructions for making the casserole except for the cream sauce. Place into a disposable casserole dish for storage. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap then aluminum foil and place for safe keeping in your freezer (I would write on the aluminum foil what it is so you don’t forget later). When you’re ready just pull it out of the freezer and allow to thaw. Whip up the cream sauce and add to the thawed casserole, bake and serve!

Hi I’m Adrianne. 
I’m on a wellness journey. 
My mind has been sick. 
My body has been sick. 

It’s shown in my hair, my skin, my mood. 

I’ve spent a lot of time learning and researching so that I can feed my body and mind better tools, nutrients and coping skills. 

So far I have joined Pilates, done a follicle test, switched to RG shampoo and cond, done regular scalp peeling and bathing, gone back to church, made better food choices, removed toxic people, chosen peace over chaos, gone back to school to learn more and feed my passion for my clients. 
I’m learning more about holistic product and natural medicine. 

I’m doing what I can to give back to others on the same journey. With the same struggles. 
Bc this is a movement. I can feel it. 

So many of us are tired of feeling defeated the last 4 years. Tired of throwing medicine down our throats, not seeing any results. Feeling fatigued and overwhelmed. 

It’s time. It’s time to be well. 
Who’s going to join me on this journey?
My @mill makes dehydrating all my kitchen scraps so much easier and makes comparing them super fast. 
It eats more than traditional compost bins, like chicken bones, avocado seeds and more! It has an app that will tell you what’s ok and what’s not, so it’s super user friendly. Even table scraps can go in! 

I love it bc it makes composting a breeze! Beautiful black nutrient rich soil for my garden! 🥕🫑🥦🥬🌽
