Today my kitchen smells amazing. Probably because I am making two delicious recipes! Yay experimentation! One recipe is my own, and the other one is from my favorite recipe website, AllRecipes. I made a couple changes to each and am going to try combining them later. Here's what I'm up to...
My own recipe is the Spectacular Spaghetti Squash. I left out the cheese and only used minced garlic, salt, pepper and basil to season all the veggies (which were half an onion, 1 red bell pepper and a cup of sliced mushrooms). I also used about half the amount of butter. That was cooked in the oven, scooped with a fork and is now waiting for the chicken to get done.
As for the other recipe, Angel Chicken Pasta is one my mom discovered several years ago. It is amazing and I have always loved it, even when I didn't really like chicken (quick sidenote, we have always doubled the sauce). For this recipe, I used half the amount of chicken (mainly because I buy organic chicken and it is expensive!) and used 1 can of cream of mushroom with roasted garlic soup and 1 can of cream of onion soup. I mixed the soup with a half cup of plain, nonfat yogurt, 1 dressing packet and about a half cup of water and poured it over the chicken I had placed in my crock pot. That's been going on high for about two hours so it should be done soon!
If you haven't guessed already, my plan is to put the angel chicken mixture over the spaghetti squash in place of noodles. I'm pretty sure the result will be deliciousness but I will post in the comments how everything turns out: )
It ended up being delicious!! Will definitely make angel chicken with spaghetti squash again. Maybe next time I can figure out how to make it healthier...
