Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

This recipe was originally published December 2, 2012! WOW! So much has changed since then for us. We have another child for one, and a lot has changed diet wise. I thought I would update it for a few reasons. You could make this slow cooker recipe in a crockpot or instant pot (which wasn't a thing in 2012). The original recipe called for Velveeta cheese and I thought I would share how to make that homemade. With the current climate and so many making recipes at home with canned goods, I thought I would share a better for you recipe made with items from your pantry instead of fresh from a fridge. 

Easy Slow Cooker Chicken Spaghetti Recipe

The original version of this recipe was created to trick my daughter into eating her veggies by adding purees into it which you could still totally do, but I have found that you can do this with almost ANY recipe really. Making the cheese sauce for this homemade is better for you because it has less preservatives. If you want to make it easier, then you can definitely buy Velveeta block cheese and call it a day. You could also make this keto friendly and omit the spaghetti noodles, then just top it on zoodles. Yum!
