Chicken Spaghetti Olé

Tomatoes with green chiles and jalapenos give a Southwestern spin to an Italian standby. Chicken is a lighter option than ground bef.

In addition to what Jensensmama did (using mexican style cheese loaf w/peppers) I also added sliced black olives. My family loves it and requests it often. It also freezes well IF you have leftovers.

I have made this recipe several times, and it's definitely a huge hit at my house. Since we like things a little bit on the spicier side, I used a Mexican style cheese loaf with peppers in addition to the tomatoes and chilies. Very good!
